What reading level is India book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The book was My Diary in India in the Year 1858–9. The author was William Howard Russell; he was described on the title page as the special correspondent of The Times. It was as correspondent of The Times that Russell had made his name in the years immediately before, during the Crimean War: his reports about the hospital conditions of the British expeditionary force had caused Florence Nightingale to be sent out to the Crimea. It was with that reputation, and no doubt with the hope of repeating... something of that success, that, nine months after coming back to England, he had gone off again, to the Mutiny in India.
Train and ship and train to Paris; train to Marseilles; steamer to Malta and Alexandria; train to Cairo and Suez; three weeks in a steamer to Ceylon and Calcutta. And then by cart and rail and cart to the front.
Russell was thirty-six. He was the only correspondent who had been sent out by a British newspaper to report on the Mutiny ‘and the revolt which followed it’. The ‘letters’ he sent back to The Times were duly published in the paper.
