What reading level is Father Marquette book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He knew the hazard. He said, he gladly exposed his life ; and Marquette never boasted.
And he did expose his life for days and nights continu- ally until months rolled away. Contemplate the little band of seven exploring twenty-seven hundred miles through a region where the face of a civilized man had never been seen before. Danger on every side of them. No refuge any- where outside of their steady courage. Among a people trained to treachery and with whom pity had no prompter when policy was s...ilent. A race among whom the murder of a stranger was not a crime; among whom hospitality did 262 not include the idea of protection; whose only lenity pro- ceeded from fear or indifference. Such men Marquette found before him, behind him and about him when he went to find the great river, and to carry salvation to lost nations on its borders.
Marquette's health was now completely shattered. He did not repine. He was content. He had done his duty. He had served God and his country. He had, he believed, saved souls, and had done a great service to the Future.
