What reading level is The Native Races of East Africa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hinde says : " As long as she can crawl about she continues her labours, and death is the only release she can hope for. " As a rule, a girl becomes the wife of a man who can afford to pay goats and cattle for her ; but the Masai parents consider their daughter's wishes, and she is not obliged to become the wife of a man she does not hke.
The Hfe of Masai people depends almost entirely on herds of goats and cattle, which are driven from pasture to pasture. Reptiles, birds, insects, and fish are... never eaten, grain onty at times when meat is scarce, while a favourite food is blood, drawn from the neck of a cow by making a small puncture with an arrow, in such a way as to avoid injuring the animal severely. Herds of cattle, though very docile and easily managed by small children, are extremely fierce, and well able to protect them- selves against attacks made by hyenas or a leopard.
Though so bold in warfare the Masai are not a race of hunters, and big game such as Uons, leopards, or the rhinoceros are attacked only when the skin THE FIGHTING MASAI 27 is required, or the animal has become a menace to the herds of cattle.
