What reading level is The Story of Extinct Civilizations of the West book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" As a youth in Spain he had studied for the bar at the University of Salamanca ; and in some of his speeches on critical occasions one can find certain traces of his academical training in the adroit arguments and clever appeals.
Other qualifications as an officer were his manly and handsome appearance, his affable manners, combined with "extraordinary address in all mar- tial exercises, and a constitution of such vigor as to be capable of enduring any fatigue. " Cortes on reviewing his commis...sion from the Governor, Velasquez, was too shrewd not to be aware of the importance of his new position. The "Great Admiral, " with reference to the discovery of the New World, had said : "I have only opened the door for others to enter" ; and Cortes was con- scious that now was the moment for that entrance. Filled with unbounded ambition he rose to the occasion.
Velasquez somewhat hypocritically pretended that the object he had in view was merely barter with the natives of New Spain that being the name given by Grijalva to Yucatan and the neighboring country.
