What reading level is Nimrod of the Sea, Or the American Whaleman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We were now thoroughly frightened, and turned to retrace our steps ; but which way ? We stood in a sea of nothingness — locked in the foundations of the mountain.
The walls were lost to the sight, and were nothing to the touch. We stooped to the deep dust of the floor, and held the flame to read our foot-prints ; but this soil of carbon ab- sorbed the light, as the sand of the desert does the rain- drops. We reached forward, and the hand failed to meet the wall ; we reached downward, and there,... too, was but empty space. The light failed to show the defining edge between the solid rock and the void. We swung the lamp over the brink on which we lay ; it revealed nothing. We dropped a heavy stone into the chasm, and listened for the rebound. No sound was returned as it sank into the pro- found. We cast another stone across to test the width, but this, too, was lost to the senses. Silently they passed away, as the mist-wreath on the hill-side. And then we knew we had been preserved from death.
