What reading level is Around the World Sketches of Travel Through Many Lands And Over Many Seas book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The poorer qualities, having much earthy matter, sink. The finest indigo, in a dry state, will scarcely make a mark on white paper.
244 ABOU^'I) THE WORLD.
THE NATIVES OF INDIA ; CASTE, ETC.
Before reaching India, I met with a very intelligent gentleman who had spent many years in that country. In the course of conversation I made some remark in regard to native society, to which he immediately replied, with an exclamation, " Native society ! Wliy, there is no such thing. The women (referring, ...of course, to the more wealthy class- es) never see any one, and the men spend their time be- tween eating and sleeping. " This is a strong way of putting the matter ; but, with exceptional cases, it is the truth. There is no social life among the native population of India. The woman is no society to her husband, the only man whom, as a rule, she ever meets ; the man is no society to his wife : he regards her as belonging to an inferior order of beings, created only to minister to liis pleasure and comfort as a servant ; there is nothing like social intercourse between brothers and sisters ; and outside of the family, society, in our un- derstanding of the term, has no existence.
