What reading level is Around the World Through Japan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Within the walls near the tower are temples and graves, and outside the walls are more graves and three or four forts. In the direction of Whampoa can be seen the two nine-storeyed pagodas and the Bogue forts ; to the east lie the White Cloud Hills and the valley of the Tung-Kiang, to the south-west the Sai Chin Hills, while to the north is a large plain, the valley of the Pe-Kiang.
In Canton (or as the natives call it, Kwang-chau-fu) the main streets are generally paved with granite slabs twel...ve inches wide, three inches thick, and three or four feet long, usually laid crosswise but sometimes lengthwise. A paved road over four feet wide is uncommon in a Chinese city, and outside the cities a metaUed or paved road is not to be found.
If transport by water is impracticable, merchandise must be carried, sometimes on an animal's back but almost universally in South China on the back of a man. Canton is particu- larly clean and well paved for a Chinese city, second only perhaps to Nanking, the ancient capital of China, where a wide metalled road runs for nine miles straight through the city.
