What reading level is Burma Under British Rule book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was here that the first English Embassy came, mentioned in the first chapter of this book. In i860 Amarapura ceased to be the capital, and its place was taken by Mandalay, an entirely new town, which King Mindon commenced when he ascended the throne in 1852. Nothing need be said of Mandalay, which has already been described, but round Mandalay I would direct attention to the tombs of the Burmese Kings, Mandalay Hill and the Mingdn Bell. Ming6n is a village in the Sagaing District, and the ri...dge which rises above it offers to who- ever takes the trouble to climb it a remarkable 235 Burma under British Rule view of Mandalay, Kyaukse, Ava, Sagaing, and Shwebo. It stands fifteen hundred feet above mean sea level, and from its crest the view ex- tends to the Sekyataung, in Myingyan District and to the mountains of the ruby-mines. There are several famous pagodas at Mingon : the Eindawya, built in 1662; the Setdawya, in 1790; and the Sinbyu-mibuya, built in the same year. Two ancient shrines, built by the King Thiridhammathawka in 866, the Shwe- myindin and the Sutaung-pyi, are still standing, but the great wonder of Mingon is the famous bell, which is said to be second only to the one at Moscow.
