What reading level is From the Caves And Jungles of Hindostan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For instance, in the unani- mous opinion of travellers and antiquarians, the most interesting building of Hyderabad is Chahar-Minar, a college that was built by Mohamed-Kuli-Khan on the ruins of a still more ancient college. It is built at the crossing of four streets, on four arches, which are so high that loaded camels and elephants with their turrets pass through freelJ^ Over these arches rise the several stories of the college. Each story once was destined for a separate branch of learning.... Alas! the times when India studied philosophy and astronomy at the feet of her great sages are gone, and the English have trans- formed the college itself into a warehouse. The hall, which served for the study of astronomy, and was filled with quaint, mediaeval apparatus, is now used for a depot of opium; and the hall of philosophy contains huge boxes of liqueurs, rum and champagne, which are prohibited by the Koran, as well as by the Brahmans.
We were so enchanted by what we heard about Hyderabad, that we resolved to start thither the very next morning, when our ciceroni and companions de- stroyed all our plans by a single word.
