What reading level is Among the Mongols book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The " pot and ladle " were put at our service, and in most cases our tea made and our food cooked for us, no remuneration being expected, asked, or given, beyond a little tea, or the MONGOL HOSPITALITY. 63 leavings of our meal, which, with this object in view, was always more abundant than was necessary tosupply the wants of two travellers. We found that we fared much more economically, and were better treated, and received with a much warmer welcome, in the tents of the poor than in the abodes... of the rich. A rich man would make us wait his convenience, and expect us to make extra good tea or a meal which, both as regards quantity and quality, would be in keeping with his dignity and status, and even then we left feeling that our visit had been something of an intrusion. In the tents of the poor, on the other hand, we were warmly welcomed, our tea or food was prepared at once and in all haste, our animals were looked to as they grazed, the share of food which we left in the pot was considered a rich reward, and when all was over we were conducted forth and sent on our way again with many expres- sions of friendship and good wishes for the prosperity of our journey.
