What reading level is Whitman's Ride Through Savage Lands, With Sketches of Indian Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He wore coarse, fur gar- ments, with buckskin breeches. He had a buffalo overcoat with a head hood for emergencies, with fur leggins and foot moccasins. If my memory is not at fault, his entire dress when on the street did not show an inch of woven fabric." We copy thus fully Dr. Barrows's description of Whitman and his dress, and it agrees with other descriptions less complete, as we trace him to Cin- cinnati, and again to the door of his old cherished friend, Dr. Parker, and have the testimon...y of his son, Professor Parker, who opened the door of his father's home to admit the guest in strange cos- tume. Whitman had little confidence in his own power of oratory, and was even timid, while brave. He knew the persuasive eloquence of his old associate, and his enthusiasm for Oregon, and he had hoped and expected to have his help to plead for Oregon in Washington. But the Doctor was confined to his room by ill health, and it was impossible for him to undertake the journey. Glad again to meet his old friend, and sorrowing that he was not to have his aid in this critical time, he resumed his way, and reaching Washington, ended one of the most memorable trans-continental jour- neys ever recorded.
