What reading level is The Cossacks; Their History And Country book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To the Puritan-minded Ras- kolniki existence in "Holy Russia" became intol- erable.
In the remote pro^ances of "New Russia, " along the Asiatic frontier, especially among the Cossacks of the Jaik whose free traditions were opposed to any infringement of personal liberty, many Raskol- niki who had fled for refuge found that their teach- ing met with particular success. * * "Jaik" was the name by which the present River Ural was formerly known and the title of the Cossacks long settled on its sho...res. The name of Ural was im- posed by imperial edict as a punishment after the revolt POUGATCHEV 161 It was probably iii the company of one of these bands that Pougatchev emigi-ated to this congenial frontier atmosphere. Here he was assured of a welcome both as a Raskolniki and as a Cossack who had already suffered in the cause of liberty by re- sisting the harsh disciphne of the slovodi of the Don.
Even allowing for a certain degree of religious sincerity in Pougatchev's beliefs, the course of con- duct he now adopted tends to show that considera- tions of morality entered very little mto his plans.
