What reading level is Things Seen in Morocco; Being a Bundle of Jottings, Notes, Impressions, Tales, And Tributes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
245 246 MOROCCO absolutely old-world and barbaric country, from whose shores one may hear the firing of modern guns in very modem Gibraltar, and see the cliffs in the shadow of which Britain's greatest admiral met his end.
During the past thousand years Morocco and the Moors have influenced Europe shrewdly. No more than one hundred years have passed since London merchants, with devout gratitude to the forthright Yankees who finally pricked the blood-red bubble of the Sallee Rover, ceased paying... annual tribute to the Moorish Sultan by way of bribe to save their ships from pillage and their sailors from being captured as slaves for the Court at Marrakish or Fez. Yet it may fairly be said that Morocco and the Moors have made no more response than has Thibet to any one among the influences and events which have moulded modem Christendom and the mighty civilisation of the West The stately mosques of bygone Moorish warriors (Christendom has nothing to excel them in dignity) are now the cathedrals of Christian Spain ; but you shall look vainly in Morocco for traces of European growth and change, or even for a genuine convert (in full possession of his mental faculties) to any European faith.
