What reading level is Wanderings in West Africa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
hovering over the real islands, especially when wooded, would prepare the curious to see land in any more persistent cloud upon the horizon. We have still mariners in Ireland and Northern Scotland who believe in *' San-Borodonisom." O. Brazile, or Hy Brazil,* seen by the people of Arran, and, like Painters' Wives' Island, placed in some unexplored comer of the ocean, is a case in point ; and at times a rock, like B/Ockall, the new cod fishery, is found to exist, which makes us doubt if man has ...yet exhausted all discovery even in comparatively beaten tracks.
The far-famed Peak is rarely seen from the north-east; at the distance of about fifty miles, it appeared as a lumpy, ogee-shaped cone, in no wise remarkable, but looking like a low triangular cloud, by reason of its whiteness, which is said to be caused by decomposed vitreous porphyritic lava. From the south of the island it may theoretically be seen for 120 miles, but it has lost much of the grand and picturesque aspect which it shows from the Valley of Arotava to the north-east of it, and looks like a flattened dome or block of moun- tain, with a central jag.
