What reading level is The Beginning of the Sea Story of Australia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" * A snow differed somewhat slightly from a brig. It had two masts similar to the fore and mainmasts of a brig or ship, and, close abaft the mainmast, a topsail mast.
After burying an officer and two seamen at Batavia, Hunter left thatplace on October 20th, reached the Cape on the 17th of December, andwas driven to sea again after the loss of two anchors, till the 30th. So weak and ill were his men from the effects of their stay in theunhealthy climate of Batavia, that he had to remain at the ...Cape till the18th of January, when he again put to sea and sailed for England.
Hunter's brief and precise official account of his voyage discloseslittle of the great distress of that thirteen months' passage; but itshows how the spirit of discovery was in the man; how, in spite of thecare of one hundred and twenty-three people in a 300-ton vessel, andhalf rations, he had time and energy enough to think of surveying. Oneresult of his voyage was his strongly expressed opinion that the properroute home from Australia was _via_ Cape Horn--now the recognisedhomeward route for sailing vessels.
