What reading level is The Art of Travel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When no boat is to be had, fords should be tried for where the river is broad rather than where itis narrow, and especially at those places where there are bends in itscourse. In these the line of shallow water does not run straight across, but follows the direction of a line connecting a promontory on one sideto the nearest promontory on the other, as in the drawing; that is tosay, from A to B, or from B to C, and not right across from B to b, fromA to a, or from C to c. Along hollow curves, a...sa, b, c, the stream runsdeep, and usually beneath overhanging banks; whilst in front ofpromontories, as at A, B, and C, the water is invariably shoal, unless itbe a jutting rock that makes the promontory. Therefore, by entering thestream at one promontory, with the intention of leaving it at another, you ensure that at all events the beginning and end of your course shallbe in shallow water, which you cannot do by attempting any other line ofpassage.
