To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Although the really important preparations for renewing the voyage were completed, we found that there were a good many odd jobs still to be done which postponed the date of our sailing. I was not sorry for the delay. Neither the cook nor I, though both now in good health, felt able for the arduous work which would fall upon us with so meagre a crew whenever we left the protecting arms of the reef.
Being stronger, I was able to get about the island and the reef in a way I could not do at first.... It was not of any great extent. The little plan I drew will give you an idea of its size. It was rather a common- place island. Certainly, it did not possess all the interesting features of the Coral Island of our youth. There wore no inhabitants. I question if anyone had ever landed on it. At any rate, there were no signs of a lasting occupancy by either brown men or white.
132 LOVE AND LONGITUDE I think I told you that we had discovered early that it had no permanent water supply, though one would not have died of thirst by any means, as there were several large collections of rain water, both on the reef (where they were brackish from spray) and on the central islet.
