What reading level is The Spanish Pioneers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE CHURCH-BUILDERS. 165 is strangely fascinating to all who love that lonely heroism which does not need applause or compan- ionship to keep it alive. To be brave in battle or any similar excitement is a very easy thing. But to be a hero alone and unseen, amid not only danger but every hardship and discouragement, is quite another matter.
The missionary to New Mexico had of course to come first from Old Mexico, or, before that, from Spain. Some of these quiet, gray-robed men had already seen s...uch wanderings and such dangers as even the Stanleys of nowadays do not know. They had to furnish their own vestments and church furni- ture, and to pay for their own transportation from Mexico to New Mexico, for very early a " line " of semi-annual armed expeditions across the bitter intervening wilderness was arranged. The fare was $266, which made serious havoc with the good man's salary of $150 a year (at which figure the salaries remained up to 1665, when they were raised to $330, payable every three years).
