What reading level is The Siberian Overland Route From Peking to Petersburg, Through the Deserts And Steppes of Mongolia, Tartary, &c book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These, with a few mats on the ground for squatting on by day, and sleeping on by night, comprise all the actual furniture of a yourt.
To-day, 30th August, we killed some sand-grouse. They were of the same species as those found about Peking and Tientsin (the Pallas sand-grouse), but were in much finer condition. They were fat, and of such excellent flavour that they would be considered a delicacy anywhere. All their crops which we dissected were full of small black beetles, and the same was the... case with the curlew we killed. We fell in with a herd of gurush, and had some long shots ; but we were never fortunate enough to bag any of these animals.
In leaving the caravan there is always more or less danger of getting lost. It has happened more than once to travel- lers. But still there is a beaten track all the way through the desert, which is distinctly marked in the grassy parts, and even in the sand it is traceable. In winter it may be obliterated, but still I think, with ordinary care, one ought not to lose himself in the desert.
