What reading level is Asia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the ethnology of this region has still to be worked out, and, as is the case with so many nomad peoples, there appears to be clear evidence of two very distinct races, one of noble type, probably representing a conquering people of Aryan speech, the other more debased, representing the primitive Allophylian element of Georgian speech, now assimilated to the conquerors. In Upper Mesopotamia the Kurdish and Arab nomads are intermingled. But farther south the bulk of the population beyond the ...walls of the towns consists of Bedouin tribes, whose subjection to the Porte is of a very loose character, and who may in some respects be regarded as the true masters of the land. Besides, the Ottoman Government is quite incapable of introducing a practical system of culture even into the arable tracts of Irak- Arabi. For many years past the governors, pressed by the Anazeh, Shammar, Montefik, Beni-Laam, and other powerful Bedouin tribes, have been able to do little more than keep things from tumbling to pieces.
