What reading level is The King of Honey Island book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He felt that he must see Loring once more before he left the city. To this end he bent his steps toward the club-room of the Chats-Huants which was over the back part of a low restaurant near the river.
Chats-Huants [screech-owls] was the name of a mysterious organization which fell to pieces when, some time after the War of 1812, the robbers of Honey Island were routed and their power des- troyed.
What seems most strange to one who gains access to the records is the fact that the Chats-Huants,... although their proceedings were vailed, did not pre- tend to evade the authorities of New Orleans. It was well known that they were in league with smugglers, so-called " privateers " and negro- stealers ; but it was understood as well that they were " operated " outside of Louisiana, or, in other MR. VERNON AND COLONEL LORING. 175 words, that they were "importers" of unlawful wares, and that all of their gains went to swell the wealth of the State and the city.
Mr. Vernon felt sure that, if Loring had been deceiving him, and had been all this time operating with the Honey Island outlaws instead of being in Mexico if Colonel Loring and Pierre Rameau were indeed identical as both Fairfax and Vasseur had declared then the room of the Chats-Huants would be the place in which to look for him.
