What reading level is The Philippine Problem 1808-1913 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ninety-three per cent of the twenty-six hundred men employed in the bureau of navigation, which has charge of all these matters, are Fili- pinos. Some fifty craft move about, engaged constantly in the work of this department or in promoting new trade where other transpor- tation is not available. Many towns that have OTHER IMPROVEMENTS 149 never been visited by vessels large enough to carry cargo are put on regular routes of coast- guard cutters that take their products to the nearest market ; ...and every small planter in the vicinity knows that at last he can secure sale of his goods if he gets them to the coast.
This opens a new horizon to hundreds whose efforts have been stifled heretofore, and al- though the rates charged do not repay directly the money outlay, yet the policy has never been altered. As a rule it is but a short time after the establishment of one of these governmental routes when some canny seaman deems it worthy of the installation of a commercial line. He takes up the traffic, and the govern- ment's cutter withdraws, only to search out some other place in similar want of its services ; and so the work goes on, all along the entire coast, ever expanding, ever offering its aid.
