What reading level is Journal of a Trip to California By the Overland Route Across the Plains in 1850 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We went to the river once, although out of the way. *The ri^ht hand road is 18 miles without grass or water, very dusty and disagreea- ble. Water very bad, even that in the river; camped on the river bank, no grass on our side. The boys swam the river about fifteen rods wide' here, and rigged a sort of ferry with our piquet ropes, and ferried grass across on them fof the night, no small job for 17 horses. 23 miles.
23d. Started this morning at four o'clock, A. M. From camp it is 14 miles to wat...er or graas. Two miles from camp the roads branched in every direction, and the course of the river is hidden entirely by the mountain which seems to circle the whole country like the rim of a great basin, with the exception of a gap far to the right. The plain spreads out to the mountains level and desolate, a desert. Tt is labyrinth of roads gave rise to one of the most ludicrous scenes that I ever saw. For myself, I had been lost from my wagons since daylight, without being aware of the fact, and like the rest had taken a wrong road.
