What reading level is From Fiji to the Cannibal Islands book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Buli shared my tea, on this occasion, with much delight. Gideon prepared a specially powerful cup, well stewed, for him. To present it, he squatted down on the ground before the Buli, lowered his head, and held up the cup, humbly saying : " Na ti, Turanga " (" The tea, chief ! ") The Fijian " kaisi, " or commoner, pays immense respect to chiefs, and never dares to 86 THE CANNIBAL ISLANDS address them unless squatting humbly on the ground at their feet. Only an equal addresses a chief while ...standing.
After every one had fed, and was satisfied, the Buli put my men through a searching catechism as to my- self and my doings, enjoying the good gossip as heartily THE BULI OF LEMBA-LEMBA, WITH FATHER AND FAMILY as any old maid in an English chimney corner, and roaring with laughter over some of their replies. It was then explained to him that I should want the whole house to myself that night, with his wife to keep me company. The idea of being turned out of his chiefly mansion in favour of that unimportant item, his wife, struck the Buli as the greatest joke of the season, and his fat sides fairly shook with laughter, as he bade me good-night, and waddled down the cocoanut log out into the dark.
