What reading level is Through Southern Mexico, Being An Account of the Travels of a Naturalist book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Humboldt, who followed up this LEAVING CAMP AT VISTOLA.
same road from Acapulco in 1803, mentions this identical spring as the Fuente de la Extola. It is now variously called Vistola, or Pistola. Close to it is a small cattle ranch, and the great number of cattle in this valley was a great drawback, since, as usual, they rendered every stream undrinkable, and caused the whole neighbourhood to be infested with flies.
That is the curse of a cattle country ; every drinking place is filthy, bad eno...ugh to upset horses and mules, which, in Guerrero are certainly not squeamish, poor beasts ; and should the grass or ground look never so clean and inviting, one has only to camp there to find that the flies and smells and dirt — as if there 346 THROUGH SOUTHERN MEXICO were not already enough discomforts without them — make the nights at such a place a burden both to man and beast.
However, after various attempts we aUghted upon a pretty spot, protected from the almost ubiquitous cattle on one side by a craggy hill, and on the other three sides by a ravine and a brook.
