What reading level is Italy's Problems And Achievements book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


According to calculations of that period, the population of Dalmatia, including the islands, amounted toward the close of the fifteenth century, as shown by the reports of the Venetian Provisors to their government, to 60,000 souls.
As the towns and villages were inhabited by Italians it is evident that the number of Slavs then in Dalmatia was inconsiderable, and that it was only increased by subse- quent immigrations, due to Turkish invasions and to the colonizing activity of Venice.
Undoubted
...ly Turkey was the prime cause of the increase 77 of the Slav population in Dalmatia, driving crowds of fugitives to seek refuge from Bosnia; the second cause was Austria. Under Austrian rule the number of Slavs in Dalmatia has increased three-fold.
Before the Slav invasion caused by the Turks the Latin character of Dalmatia had been strengthened by many thousands of Rumanians (Mauro-Walachians, Morla- chians) who have now disappeared. It is, moreover, evident that all the Rumanian districts in the mountains* and the Italian centers in the Dalmatian cities nearest to the Dinaric Alps, were first devastated by the Turks and then settled by them exclusively with Slavo-Turkish people from whom at least two-thirds of the Dalmatian Slavs descend.
