What reading level is Hernando Cortez book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
March orer the monntams.
'* And Grod only knows," says Cortez, "the toil and fatigue with which it was accomplish- ed ; for of twenty-four horses that remained to us, there was not one that could move briskly, nor a horseman able to raise his arm, nor a foot-soldier unhurt who could make any effort." They were now on the western side of the lake. It was necessary to pass around the northern shore of this vast expanse of water, as the country was there thinly populated, and they would be consequ...ently less liable to at- tack. The road led a distance of nearly a hund- red miles over mountains and through marshes to the eastern shore. From there, a march of more than sixty-four miles was necessary be- fore they could reach the territory of Tlascala, which was the first point where they could hope for any relief.
Under the guidance of a Tlascalan soldier, the despairing band commenced its march. They advanced the first day and night but nine miles, fighting incessantly all the way. For six days, with hardly any respite, they continued their retreat.
