What reading level is Friendly Russia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I left the officials and ran to see what it was.
When I returned I found the student stand- 13 194 FRIENDLY RUSSIA ing on a bench, addressing the carriage - load. " Austria has declared war on our brothers the Serbs ! " he shouted. " We must defend them to the last drop of our blood. Hurrah for Servia ! Hurrah for Russia ! God save the Tsar ! " and we all, peasants, officials, and every one, joined in the hymn together.
Ill After that it did not matter how many came in. Crowds came in all night... ; we were packed tightly from station to station, unpacked, freed for a few minutes, and packed again. Except for the student and myself, none in our carriage were doing the whole journey. Many were peasants, with their wives and children, going only short distances. Rumours of war had already started the great general post. The backs of each seat turn up and make a wooden berth, and from mine I looked down on a carriage full of men with shaggy heads and tousled beards, some golden in the lamp- light ; of women, their hair swathed in bright red or yellow scarves, and bending anxiously over babies at their breasts ; of faces, lined and sallow, prematurely old, or young with THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE 195 a childishness that had outlived their youth, some round and squat with snub noses, high cheek-bones, and almond eyes, others fair and majestic and framed in masses of tawny hair ; but all were vivacious.
