What reading level is Holy Himalaya : the Religion, Traditions And Scenery of a Himalayan Province (Kumaon And Garhwál) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The richest vegetation is always to be found between the heights of 6000 and 10,000 feet. In autumn the ground in many places is covered with flowering plants — white anemone, columbine, and a kind of strawberry of delicious flavour that grows in great abundance, as well as the common Fragaria indica, resembling a raspberry. In a few places one still sees the " jhula " or rope-bridge, though these have been improved away on the main roads. They were once the only means of crossing rivers ui the... Himalayas.
Two strong ropes of twisted grass are stretched across from cliff to cliff, and to these are attached shorter ropes supporting transverse pieces of wood, while over the latter are laid lengths of split bamboo, upon which the passenger has to walk. The track or foot- way is only about ten inches wide, and the whole affair swings about in an alarming fashion. In con- struction, however, it is evidently the forerunner and model of the modern suspension-bridge which has now replaced it.
