What reading level is Jason--Nova Scotia: Founded Upon a Romantic Legend of My Native Land book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An aged chief at length drew near, and after the various salutations and question- ings which the Micmac etiquette required, laid his weapons alongside of Gaspard's and conducted the latter within the council chamber. One by one the warriors followed suit, and the far half of the floor, which was specially covered with fur skins, soon became occupied by rows of savages, sitting cross- legged and silent. Gaspard was placed in the centre, facing a little group of sakumous (or headmen) who sat tog...ether. Then entered the squaws, many of them with papooses strapped on back, who scattered upon either side of the bare half of the floor space. In the centre of the latter and reaching well out beyond the entrance, was a crowd of children of both sej^es, whose Digitized by Google - 147 - occasional quarrelings and shrill outcries were the only disturbing elements in the whole assemblage. Not until all was in order and the gathering complete, did any sound escape the elders. We shall not bore the reader with the ponderous idioms of the Micmac dialect, but translate the more im- portant language that ensued in as simple English as may be.
