To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Approaching Eakcham, the path changes to every variety common to mountain tracks — over slippery granite rocks, then along several log bridges, across chasms between huge boulders ; and at two places, notched logs.
WILD WOMEN 255 by way of ladders, to ascend masses of rock on one side and to descend from them on the other. These specimens of a Himalayan road occur within a space of two hundred yards. Those of us who wore boots or shoes had to take them off and climb barefooted. Just below this ...break-neck path is Kakcham itself, a black and grimy village of half a dozen wooden houses, planted in several feet of foul mud.
Most of the miserable huts are built against the rock ; these are filthy in the extreme, and the inhabitants are filthier still. The women are extraordinarily timid.
Whenever I met them on the road, or even passed them at a distance working in a field, they invariably took to flight, and hid behind rocks and trees till I was out of sight — for all the world like wild animals, from which, I am sure, they were not many degrees removed.
