What reading level is Major Vigoureux book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nor could thewounds be covered over and hidden, for he had taken them openly, almostpublicly. His anger swung helplessly forward and back between the twooutrages, both to him inexplicable. To be sure he had not reckoned onany gratitude for the gift of the breeches. But what had he done thatthey should be flaunted on a scarecrow?. .. Oh, it was monstrous!
As little could he understand Tregarthen or Tregarthen's language. Somegadfly must have stung the man. A few acres of the barrenest land inthe... whole archipelago--and the fellow talked as though he were beingdispossessed of an Eden! Yes, and as though that were not enough, hehad used the flattest disrespect. The Lord Proprietor was notaccustomed to disrespect. From the first his Islanders had treated himwith the deference due to a king. Save and except the Commandant, noman had ever crossed his will or disputed his authority.
His rage swung back again upon the Commandant. It was all very well toplead that the Commandant had been in church at the time; but, afterall, an officer must be held responsible for his men's doings.
