What reading level is The Markhor Sport in Cashmere book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is almost the same proportion in numbers as that between the Cashmere cousins, markhor and ibex : 1 1 8 markhors as against 286 ibex.
The horns of the ibex are perhaps more handsome, making as they do such a charming arched line in profile ; but every sportsman in Asia puts a higher value on the majestic, snake-like, twisted, slender antlers of the markhor. Then, too, ibex, though of 105 io6 THE MARKHOR inferior quality, can be got in other parts of the yellow continent, in Africa, and even
...in the Italian Alps ; whereas the snowy heights of the Himalayas alone produce the markhor.
Some 20, 000 rupees, in round numbers about 1, 250, are added to the State coffers of Cashmere through the sale of shooting licences at 60 rupees apiece. About two hundred Europeans are re- sponsible for this sum, and thereby add considerably to the otherwise rather scarce means of increasing the revenues of the country.
In this way, too, about three thousand coolies earn food and wages for six months of the year, and a few pence to carry them through the rest of the time.
