What reading level is The Sea Gypsies of Malaya An Account of the Nomadic Mawken People of the Mergui book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We learn that the beating of the big drum of "the deadly climate" of tropical countries is much overdone, since in these countries the number of enemies is fewer; and with due pre- cautions and sober living the white man can be " safer " in these parts than in England. Exercise, moderation in all things, the prevention of constipation, and pro- tecting the abdomen from chill are the simple rules of health in these places. The Mawken have exercise of necessity. They must hunt and search for thei...r food for the most part. They have no dinner if they catch no fish. While they fear dysentery, they are not seriously concerned about constipation. Their scant clothing reduces the risk of chill.
Owing to malnutrition and to the insanitary condi- tions of the kabang, such as I have previously described, not a few of the Mawken suffer from skin disease.
One entry in my diary reads : " Found a two-moons child literally eaten up with sores. Washed it in Lysol and water, and applied sulphur ointment and a clean dress.
