What reading level is Peter Biddulph book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here, again, was anadvantage which my humble little schooner possessed over a bigger craft. Giving a parting kiss to my wife and daughters, I leaped again on deck.
It was a question whether we should be able to keep off the shore tillwe could reach the island. I could see the surf breaking furiously onthe rocks to leeward, and the gale blew as heavily as ever. A slightshift of wind might save us. If the wind held as it then did, I had nohopes for the little _May Flower_.
The day was drawing to ...a close. Every instant the danger increased. The gale, instead of breaking, raged more furiously than ever. Closerand closer the schooner drifted towards the shore. It would have beenmadness to carry more sail; for already her lee bulwarks were underwater, and yet I dared not take any off her with the slightest hopes ofbeing able to claw off shore. The seas came breaking on board, delugingour decks, and, had not the hatches been firmly secured, would quicklyhave swamped us. I was at the helm, with Charley White by my side, myboys and the two men having lashed themselves to the weather rigging.
