What reading level is The Life of Yakoob Beg Athalik Ghazi And Badaulet Ameer of Kashgar book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The tenant, as has been said, paid the government dues and handed over three-fourths of the net produce to the landlord as rent, receiving for his portion only the one-fourth remaining. Under this system it was only in very pros- perous years that any but very large tenants made suffi- cient to earn a competent livelihood. In bad years it is possible that the landlord had to satisfy himself with a smaller share, if he was not induced to surrender his claim altogether for the disastrous period. ...But the tax- farmers, entrusted with the collection of this rate, were eager to become rich, no less than to earn a good name with the authorities for bringing in a list with no de- faulters. The unfortunate people were completely at their mercy, and without any means of ascertaining the accu- racy of the claim, or of opposing extortionate demands on the part of the tax-collectors. They paid without a murmur, perhaps without a suspicion of the imposition that was being practised upon them, the sum demanded of them, if they were able ; and as their dues were pay- able without delay and on demand before anything else was taken out of the total sum of the produce, the Athalik Ghazi received his share with regularity, and his tax-collector pocketed the excess sum for his own satis- faction.
