What reading level is Travels in the Central Caucasus And Bashan Including Visits to Ararat And Tabre book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The houses are scattered among the fields, and look less like fortresses or dungeons than those of the upper valley; while the fields are surrounded with neatly-woven fences and tall trees, amongst which we saw, for the first time, walnuts growing in clumps by the side of the path. The height is only 4, 500 feet, and the produce of the fields and the abundance of fruit-trees bear witness to a milder climate. Tobacco, Indian corn, millet, peas, and beans are extensively cultivated, and the grass... crops, which the peasants were now busy mowing, seemed very rich.
A SUANETIAN FARMHOUSE. 3'25 The people in tlie fields were a wild-looking race, and the women had the rough inqnisitiveness of savages. Francois' personal appearance seemed to take their fancy, but though flattered at their admii-ation, he was not disposed to return it. We none of us lost our hearts to the female portion of the population on the south of the Caucasus ; the vaunted and undoubted beauty of the Georgian race cannot withstand the exposure to weather, and the field-work at an early age, which is the lot of the women of the mountain tribes, and the traveller who wants to see the houris with whom popular fancy j)eoples the country had better stay at Kutais or Tiflis.
