To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Granada — and the first breath-taking view of the glorious [199] Alhambra; lacy architecture and gardens and leafy balus- trades and trickling water and famous vistas — spirit of Wash- ington Irving! Then, Barcelona, and after the Land of Maiiana, back to France and the glory that is still Italy, with "The Last Supper" in our eyes and Toscanini's "Magic Flute" in our ears, and Mussolini's iron hand over everything! Cairo — and, at last, Jerusalem ! Zionist and non-Zionist unite in deepest tribu...te to the magnificent achievement in Palestine. Again, our visit there was timely, as my birthday was celebrated by a group of distinguished friends: Mr. And Mrs. Nathan Straus, Henrietta Szold, Sophie Berger, Mrs. Judah Magnes (wife of the head of the University), and Miss Day. Miss Szold introduced us to the wonders wrought in Palestine, and perhaps our most poignant memory of our World Tour was the revelation of the "Promised Land", present and future. Of course, we were prepared for great accomplishment, and found it, but there were unimaginable surprises, everywhere: Pagliacci, sung in Hebrew; a Jewish Woman's Club, advocating "equal rights for women"; the silk worm as a possible future industry; Jews still practising polygamy; Arab children married at eight and ten years of age and having children at fourteen; graduate Hadassah nurses and most progressive institutions of all kinds; acres of tobacco plants and citrus groves; the wonderful National School for Farm Training!
