What reading level is China's Dayspring After Thirty Years book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1860 the French marched on the east of the river, and the British, their allies, on the west. On that march the French must have paid for little that they took, for during the forty, intervening years every foreigner travelling on the east of the river has had to suffer reviling, and worse, in consequence of their proceedings. Now, forty years later, five armies were marching to Peking on the west of the river.
At eleven o'clock a halt was called, and we dis- mounted near a well. I was takin...g a drink and watering my horse, when I espied a Chinaman hiding behind a hedge. After I had addressed him in his own language, he came out and said to me, " I am not afraid of the British " ; adding, " I was here forty years ago, when the English came, and they did not injure me ; so I thought I would trust them now and not run away." All other inhabitants had fled. Entering into conversation, he gave me information concerning the retreating Chinese army, its guns and condition. Generals Sung-ching and Li-ping-heng, with General Ma, were the men in command at Yang-tsun.
