What reading level is The Cruise of the Cachalot Round the World After Sperm Whales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The big three-cornered sailthat had been set, hung in tattered festoons from the long, slender yard, which, without any gear to steady it, swung heavilyto and fro as the vessel rolled to the long swell. We drewcloser and closer, but no sign of life was visible on board, sothe captain ordered a boat to go and investigate.
In two minutes we were speeding away towards her, and, making asweep round her stern, prepared to board her. But we were met bya stench so awful that Mr. Count would not procee...d, and at oncereturned to the ship. The boat was quickly hoisted again, andthe ship manoeuvred to pass close to windward of the derelict. Then, from our mast-head, a horrible sight became visible. Lyingabout the weather-beaten deck, in various postures, were thirteencorpses, all far advanced in decay, which horrible fact fullyaccounted for the intolerable stench that had driven us away. Itis, perhaps, hardly necessary to say that we promptly hauled ourwind, and placed a good distance between us and that awful loadof death as soon as possible.
