What reading level is Kelea the Surf Rider a Romance of Pagan Hawaii book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The canoe was not so magnificent as the royal war-canoe, but it was twenty-five feet long, carved at both ends, with a gaily-painted sail and a red pennon, which only high chiefs could use. No wonder that the young com- mander felt some pride in his new position, as, after receiving the king's last commands and adieus, his eight broad paddles swung the craft away into the darkness, the warriors singing a war song to which their strokes kept time.
Hookama's course was due east for about thirty m...iles ; then southeast for sixty more, with Waipio on the northern shore of Hawaii as his destination.
Kalaniopuu, the king of Hawaii, had lived all his life in the midst of carnage; he had won his throne by being victorious in civil strife. In the final battle, being told that his only hope of victory lay in the killing of a priest on the opposite side whose prayers and powers prolonged the contest, he had the priest singled out and slain by his warriors. He showed great cruelty in his raids, and his captives, men and women, were unmercifully beaten on their heads by the war-clubs of his HOOKAMA, A PRISONER AT HA WAIL 147 men.
