What reading level is The Real Quivira book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I claim that the points described, which are fixed by the narratives themselves, establish the line of travel pursued by Coronado and his exploring party from the crossing to the "end of Quivira"; and that this line, twice passed over, viewed in connection with all the statements and description given by the chronicles, and the natural features along and at the terminal points of the line, locates and identifies the long-lost land of Quivira.
It will be observed that I have not chosen a locatio...n for Quivira in advance, and interpreted the narratives so as to bring the Spaniards to it. I have been forced to my conclusion, rather than inclined toward it. I have not said a word about the many thousand implements found in the favored region I have de- scribed. Here are the flint knives and "razors" described by the narratives, arrow-points, spear-heads, axes, and agricultural implements, showing that agri- culture was practiced, agreeably to what the narratives say of the Quiviras. These implements are rude and rough, indicating people of a very low grade of culture.
