What reading level is Egypt book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This always forms a gay scene, for the river is crowded with vessels which sail quickly, and take every advan- tage of the favourable wind. Sometimes the north wind becomes dangerous in its energy, and wrecks are not infrequent, while from the south-west, at certain periods of the year, comes the hot "khamsin" wind, which, lashing the water into fury, and filling the air with dust, renders navigation almost impossible.
Some of the cargoes carried by these Nile boats are worth describing, and la...rge numbers are employed in carrying " tibbin " from the farms to the larger towns. " Tibbin " is the chopped straw upon which horses and cattle in the towns are mainly fed, and it is loaded on to the boats in a huge pyramidical pile carried upon planks which considerably overhang the boat's sides. 47 Egypt The steersman is placed upon the top of this stack, and is enabled to guide his vessel by a long pole lashed to the tiller, and it is curious to notice that the " tibbin, " though finely chopped, does not appear to blow away.
