What reading level is Thirteen Years Among the Wild Beasts of India Their Haunts And Habits From Per book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
4 double smooth-bore loaded with 10 drams in hand.
I fired when the elephant was about nine paces distant, aiming into his curled trunk about one foot below the fatal bump between the eyes, as his head was held very high, and this allowance had to be made for its eleva- tion. I felt confident of the shot, but made a grand mistake in not giving him both barrels ; it was useless to reserve the left as I did at such close quarters, and I deserved more than what followed for doing so. The smoke fro...m the 10 drams obscured the elephant, and I stooped quickly to see where he lay. Good heavens ! he had not been even checked, and was upon me ! There was no time to step right or left. His tusks came through the smoke (his head being now held low) like the cow-catchers of a locomotive, and I had just time to fall flat to avoid being hurled along in front of him. I fell a little to the right ; the next instant down came his ponderous fore-foot within a few inches of my left thigh, and I should have been trodden on had I not been quick enough, when I saw the fore-foot coming, to draw my leg from the sprawling position in which I fell.
