What reading level is New Italy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Another burden weighing very heavily on the Italian tax-payer is the octroi on food-stuffs. Italy contains 333 closed communes and 7927 open ones. The octroi is dis- tributed as follows: The 333 closed communes pay lire 39, 390, 000 to the Government and lire 136, 600, 000 in local rates. The 7827 open communes pay lire 14, 800, 000 to the Government and lire 20, 900, 000 in local rates. When we take into consideration the fact that 203 of the closed communes are in Southern Italy and the islan...ds, it will be seen that the octroi problem is one which chiefly concerns the South. The first step towards a radical financial reform must therefore be the abolition of, or at all events a large reduction in, the number of these closed communes. This is indeed generally understood in Italy, and before the war public opinion was strongly in favor of the total abolition of closed communes. Everything has had to give place to the war, but this does not imply that the Government has abandoned those preliminary studies necessary to a measure of reform, which would probably have been put into practice before now had not the European War absorbed all the energy and interest of the nation.
