What reading level is The Arctic Problem And Narrative of the Peary Relief Expedition of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Over an extent of two full miles the deeply hollowed- out or concave ice-front presents an unbroken wall of 70-100 feet elevation, from which ice- bergs constantly press forward. A mile or more in advance of it the polished surfaces of three protruding rock masses or islets clearly betray a former greatness and subsequent shrinkage, but such as it is, the glacier would not be shamed by the largest of the Alps or of Scan- dinavia. With the arrangement that the ex- amination of this huge ice-shee...t shoud be made simultaneously from opposite sides, we divided forces, my party taking up the start from the western border. Our landing place was a true garden spot. The luxuriant growth of grass, 12-16 inches in height, with its garniture of poppies, chickweed, pbtentillas and gentians, was the most refreshing exposition of Greenland vegetation that we had yet met with ; butter- flies flitted about in the bright sunshine, whose genial warmth recalled memories of a distant south.
The back of the glacier was easily reached A Lost Companion.
