What reading level is Beyond Shanghai book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sixty-five miles above the river's mouth, a long island which seemed to be the left bank, came to an end and the Yangtze broadened out into an immense expanse of water that merged on the north, east and west into the horizon. But soon the left bank itself ap- peared in the far distance bounded by vast plains which in turn were girded by rugged mountain ranges. Small mud-colored villages wallowed^ the ooze (inundated this year, as every year), while their inhabitants sat phil- osophically on the... bank higher up waiting for the waters to fall. Huge, isolated crags, tem- ple-crowned giants of the Paleozoic time, thrust themselves two hundred, three hundred feet out of the rushing water.
At every port the steamer's gangways RIVER CITIES 79 swayed under a seething mass of incoming and outgoing bales, boxes, matting-wrapped bun- dles, and human beings. Hawkers crying their nondescript wares swarmed over the gunwales and up the cables on the ship's side. Rye- paste cakes, red pills, cold arrowroot jelly, rag dolls, and long, twisted crullers quickly re- duced the available coppers of the many "space passengers, " whose grass sleeping-mats hned the deck in front of the cabins.
