What reading level is The Missions of Nueva California book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As California was little known in those days, we have few descriptions of visits to that country; still fewer to the Mis- sions. That was before the days when every one traveled, and the sole voyagers to California and such wald, unknown countries were men with a tangible, definite object, commer- cial or scientific. Vancouver was one of the earliest for- eigners to make extended visits to various settlements in California, and he has left some interesting descriptions of them; but as he was he...re from 1792 to 1794, — long before the Missions reached their best period, even before many of them were in existence, — and as he could not speak the Spanish language, he was inaccurate in his statements, writ- ing much from hearsay, and his book has little of value on this subject. Dana was on the coast in 1835, gathering hides for shipment to Boston, and has given us^ vivid pic- tures of various phases of life at Monterey, Santa Barbara, Capistrano, and San Diego, but little of the Missions them- ' Dana, R.
