What reading level is Martha of California a Story of the California Trail book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ellen and I, crouching in the rear end of the wagon where the rain could not drive in upon us, sat close to the stove, which now seemed warmer than when we were trying to cook breakfast, and talked of the future.
Of course I cannot set down all we said, for much of it was foolish ; but some of the conversation I have remembered clearly even to this day.
ELLEN'S ADVICE REGARDING THE STORY Ellen, when I had told her it was my intent to write the story of our coming from Pike County, said that it ...would not be proper for me to write anything about what we saw or did while on the Oregon trail. We were bound for California, and would not be upon the direct road to that country until we had left Fort Bridger.
It was her idea that I should begin the story with the time when we turned from the trail leading to Oregon, and set our faces directly toward California; but, as has been seen, I nearly forgot her advice, and even now it seems impossible to do exactly as she proposed.
I intend, however, in order to please her, to set down only such matters as seem to me of the greatest importance, and thereby hurry over a certain portion of the march, beginning in earnest with the time when we finally came to Fort Bridger.
