What reading level is The White Hills book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, a distance of a hundred seventy miles, to be bar- tered for provisions. The teamster was absent four weeks, and dur- ing part of this time the settlers cooked green chocolate roots and a few other wild plants, to save them from starvation.
When the settlers accumulated anything worth stealing which the mountains could not destroy by natural ravage, the bears were un- loosed upon them. If nuts and berries failed, and there Avas a famine in the Avoods, down came an irruption of black barbarians... upon the cattle, especially upon the pigs. Often a huge bear would make his appearance near a settler's house, steal a good-sized pig with his forepaws, and run off with him, eating as he ran. And sometimes the personal contests of the squatters with these aboriginal tenants, Avould be such as are decidedly more pleasant in history than in experience. What a charming surprise, for instance, to an early settler under Chocorua, when he ascended a hill near his cabin, on a very dark night, and came suddenly into the embrace, more warm THE SACO VALLEY.
