What reading level is The African Sketch book book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In most cases the question is decided by the duel ; the rivals fight, and the best man wins : in this manner not only phy- sical strength, but also courage and amorous ardour are gradually developed and improved. But every species or nation has fashions of its own, and in other cases the female runs from her lovers, like the nymph of the Greek legend, and the swiftest suitor becomes her spouse. In other species the females follow the leap- year custom of proposing to the males ; they have the p...ower of selecting their husbands, and offer them- selves to those who are distinguished for their personal attractions. In the course of countless generations, the most handsome males being always selected, and comely variations being thus preserved, and afterwards in- herited, the males acquire a beauty of their own, and are distinguished from the females not only by superior strength, courage, and activity, but also by gaudy colours, flowing hair, and elegance of form. In the same manner, among singing birds, the best musicians are selected, and so in course of time the cock bird becomes a songster, while the hen can only pipe and twitter in a small way.
