To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The caravel returned with a report that the canals and keys of this group were as numerous and intricate as those of the Qardensof the^ueen; that the main land was bordered by deep maxshes and a muddy coast, where the mangrove trees grew within the water, and so close together that they formed, as it were, an im- penetrable wall; that within, the land appeared fertile and mountain- ous* and cdumns of smoke rising from various parts gave signs of numerous inhabitants.* Under the guidance of this... caravel, Columbus now ventured to penetrate this little archipelago; working his way with great cau- tion, toil, and peril, among the narrow channels which separated the sand banks and islands, and frequently getting aground. At length he reached a low point of Cuba, to which he gave the name of Point Serafin; within which the coast swept oflf to the east, forming so deep a bay, that he could not see the land at the bottom. To the north, however, there were mountains afar of^ and the intermediate space was clear and open ; the islands in sight lying to the south and west; a description which agrees with that of the great bay of Batabano.
