What reading level is The Future of Japan, With a Survey of Present Conditions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
XXI THE JAPANESE TENDENCY Its recent and remoter history being subjected to adequate analysis, Japan, the nation, state, and social organism, yields sufficiently clear deductions as to the character and purport of this new and formidable factor in the ensemble of civilisation.
In the historical perspective we see the Japanese the docile children of a despotism, that of the Shogunate, so searching and comprehensive as almost to take the place and exercise the functions of Providence in their liv...es. This despotism, political, moral, and social, they accepted almost as they accepted the skies or the sun- set, or the loveliness of their country. Through ages of use this despotism had succeeded in commending itself to the nation as part of the order of nature. Under it the nation was not so much a political entity as a natural fact ; it was not so much an energy as a thing ; it was a mass rather than a force. And this despotism was challenged, not by the passion of the people, — by which the despotisms of Europe have commonly been challenged, — but by the intellect of a class, the ruling class.
