What reading level is Fifty Years in Ceylon An Autobiography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I left my tent every morning at daybreak, and ascended one of the ranges, selecting from the highest points, and then the highest tree, on the top of which, perched like a crow waving about on its branches, I sat with my compass and drawing-board, sketching in as well as I could the various objects in the vicinity. Then I descended, crossed the valley, and mounted the next range, which had to be similarly dealt with.
The whole country being covered with dense forest, its features could only be ...generalized. When going over the same ground thirty-three years afterwards, when most of the forest was felled and cultivated with cojffee, I was surprised to find how accurately I had succeeded in sketching in its characteristic features.
12 178 FIFTY YEARS IN CEYLON.
My mode of working necessarily often carried me far away from my camp, to which I did not get back till after dark, but I never lost my way although the forest was so dense ; the fact was, living so much iu the jungle as I did, I acquired the instincts of a woodsman.
