What reading level is A Ramble Round the World, 1871. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
August 28. — An American missionary, Dr. B., has been to call upon me. For a year he has been living at the port of Niigata, on the northern coast of Niphon. The climate there is totally different. The cold north-west winds of Manchouria blow over the place the greater part of the year and chill the whole air. In winter, the town is buried in snow, and the in- habitants are compelled- to dig passages in order to get from one house to another. In spite, however, of the abundance and duration of ...the snow, the thermometer rarely falls below zero. It is also to zero that the European and American. resi- dents have been reduced. The only white man left there is an Enghsh petty officer, the orderly of the consul, who is at this moment absent.
I admire M. Satow. He talks with everyone, and never fails to mark down in his note-book any new expressions or phrases which strike him. By carefully comparing these memoranda, he has learned to define and fix the sense of each word. It is a mental labour of every moment There are scarcely any grammars or dictionaries in the Japanese language ; or else they are very incomplete attempts to teach the rudiments of this strange tongue.
