What reading level is Pilgrimage in Europe And America Leading to the Discovery of the Sources of the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Julian sources of the Mississippi run di- rectly to the south of the small basin which has been noticed, by a narrow strait of three miles length, into Turtle lake. If I had not been afraid of adventuring my canoe amidst the almost impassable brambles and brushwood PHILOSOPHICAL LESSON. 417 which impede its portage, I should have com- menced the navigation from the very spot on which they spring.
I find it impossible to become weary of ex- amining and admiring the least objects of atten- ti...on furnished by this scene. The majestic river, which embraces a world in its immense course, and speaks in thunder in its cataracts, is at these its sources nothing but a timid Naiad, stealing cautiously through the rushes and briars which obstruct its progress. The famous Mis- sissippi, whose course is said to be twelve hun- dred leagues, and which bears navies on its bosom, and steam-boats superior in size to fri- gates, is at its source merely a petty stream of crystalline water, concealing itself among reeds and wild rice, which seem to insult over its humble birth.
