What reading level is The Lonely Island book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You shan't speak treason in _my_ company, BillMcCoy. I'm a man-o'-war's man. It won't do to shove treason in theface of a mar-o'-wa-a-r. If I _am_ a mutineer, w'at o' that? I'll letno other man haul down my colours. So don't go shovin' treason at me, Bill McCoy. " "I'll shove treason w'erever I please, " said McCoy, fiercely.
"No you shan't. " "Yes I shall. " From this point the conversation became very contradictory in tone, thenrecriminative, and after that personally abusive. At last Quintal..., losing temper, threw the remains of his last cup of spirits in hisfriend's face. McCoy at once hit Quintal on the nose. He returnedwildly on the eye, and jumping up, the two grappled in fierce anger.
They were both powerful men, whose natural tendency to personal violencetowards each other had, up to this time, been restrained by prudence;but now that the great destroyer of sense and sanity was once againcoursing through their veins, there was nothing to check them. All thegrudges and bitternesses of the past few years seemed to have beenrevived and concentrated on that night, and they struggled about thelittle room with the fury of madmen, striking out savagely, but withcomparatively little effect, because of excessive passion, coupled withintoxication, clutching and tugging at each other's whiskers and hair, and cursing with dreadful sincerity.
