To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A Frenchman of the better class, educated, nervous, active. He had all the polished urbanity of his race and the gentleness of a woman wedded to the hardy vigor of the frontiersman. Something in the clear, bracing western atmosphere seems to have developed a new type of man. The old French settlements had two classes, one of great intellect, vigor, enterprise — the Lacledes, Choteaus, Bogys, Menards, Vitals. I need not enmnerate; these represented the class. Their names are marked on the geogra...phy of the whole western country. There was not a locality too remote for their enterprise and business. There was not a river or lake but echoed to the paddles of their batteaus. There was not an Indian tribe so hostile or barbarous that they were not familiar ^vith them. There was not a mountain gorge inaccessible to their genius and skill. There was not a valley where they did not build trading posts and forts. They represented the best blood of old France, the genius and power of new France.
