What reading level is The Defence of India book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Nothing could alter his mind, he could not even understand his word being queried, and as a raider he had to be duly entered. It showed well what is beneath the surface of the frontiersman, and what must happen if he is left to himself.
To pass from raids and raiders to war. Frontier warfare is no longer the thing it was a generation, even a decade, ago. The tribesman of to-day is no hardier or braver than his forbears, but he is no whit less so, and when he fights he does it with all the inc...reased confidence that better arms and better training can bring with them. To-day he fights with weapons, and with a military precision and order, that even his father never dreamed of. Moreover, the deserters from the militias in 1919, units which served their purpose in older days but which could not survive the crises and upheavals of modern times, have swelled the ranks of the recalcitrants by a number of men fully trained in our own frontier school of war, the finest in the world. The armament pitted against us too increases every year in quantity and quality, and must continue to do so until circumstances have permitted us to establish ourselves firmly along the whole length of the Durand Line.
