What reading level is The Navajos volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It requires several ponies and a good flock of sheep to buy a young and buxom Navajo maiden. At death all the property of the husband descends not to the wife and children, but to the brothers and distant relatives of the husband.
The Navajos still preserve their old Indian mar- riage customs. Their marriage ceremony is one of the most beautiful of any of The Wedding Ceremony the tribes. It is thus des- cribed by Mr. A. M. Stev- ens: On the night set for the wedding both families and their frie...nds meet at the hut of the bride 's family. Here there is much feasting and singing, and the bride's family makes return presents to the bride- groom 's people, but not, of course, to the same amount. The women of the bride's family prepare corn meal porridge, which is poured into the wedding basket. The bride's uncle then sprinkles a circular ring and 44 THE NAVAJOS cross of the sacred blue pollen of the lark spur upon the porridge, near the outer edge and in the center. The bride has hitherto been lying beside her mother, concealed under a blanket, on the woman's side of the hogan (hut).
