What reading level is Russia As It is book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, that the red collar and THE ARMY AND NAVY. 107 military coat, is something superior in position and honor to the common existence of the rest of the nation. We mean by the above, principally officers of pure Russian blood. They know themselves, as well as tho'se of other armies, to be the trustees of what is called falsely the na tional honor, but this feeling is intimately blended in them with the love of country, of which, for many of them, the Czar is not the personification, but only a te...mporary and transient particle. When the time will come, this distinc tion between Czarism and the fatherland will become more clear and prominent, and then despotism will stand power less and abandoned by the majority. Sustained now by cowardly conservatives of both hemispheres, its much ad mired discipline will then be of no avail.
If the officers thus preserve the feeling of citizenship, much more is it the case with common soldiers. More mis erable, more oppressed by the drill, the discipline, and crushed by it, living in poverty and destitution, their position is far more helpless than would be that of a serf under the most reckless master.
