What reading level is Finland a Little Land That is True to Itself a Study of Finland Under Russia I book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The skin of a certain black fox brings $240. At the last market about ten thousand ermine skins were sold, bringing from $2. 50 to $3. 50 a skin. Pearls, too, are found in these northern rivers, and they are considered particularly desirable by the Russians. Rein- deer, are also bargained for and gold is found in Lapland, consequently Rovaniemi is a town of some importance.
On the train coming back a well-known law- yer of Enare, Lapland, came in to see us, and he proved to be well informed con...cerning this region. But I could enjoy the conversation only through an interpreter. He was a man of culture, and the fact that he owned several hun- dred reindeer made him appear a somewhat romantic person. How strange it seemed to be riding in a train, — more comfortable far than anything "wealthy and progressive" America could afford its citizens, — within a stone's throw of Lapland. Stranger far was it to learn that there are very few Lapps that cannot read and write, for there are folk-schools every- where in Lapland; if there are thirty children in a Lapp village, the Lapps build a folk-school, and there are temporary schools for persons living far out in the country.
