What reading level is Three Years in North America volume 02 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The boats are simply an oblong ark, with a roof of circular slope, about sixty feet long, and eighteen feet wide ; their timbers are massive and strong. They were formerly fitted up occasionally with STEAM-BOATS. 257 a stove and family apartments ; but good accommoda tion for cattle and horses is now more looked to in these vessels than for human beings.
Mr. Flint very correctly observes, that it was perhaps necessary to have something of the experience of the slowness, difficulty, and danger o...f propelling boats against the current of the Mississippi, and of the great western rivers of America, in order fully to estimate the advantage of the invention of the steam-boat. He himself had ascended the Mississippi in the way for merly practised, for fifty days in succession, and con sidered ten miles a-day as good progress. It is now, he says, refreshing to see the large and beautiful steam boats scudding up the eddies as though on the wing. When they have run out the eddy, and strike the cur rent, it is a still more noble spectacle.
