What reading level is Travels in the Orient book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A great Sultan was going to build a mosque in honor of one of his victories and asked the peo- ple for contributions. A poor widow brought two pigeons, all she had, as her offering and the Sultan was so pleased that he decreed that this should be called the Pigeon Mosque and that the descendants of these birds should be cared for and fed here. So it has come about that this mosque has become just a large pigeon-cote and people go to see it for the immense number of pigeons, rather than for its ...beauty. One afternoon we spent at Seraglio Point, the harem of the Sultans up to the present one. Here is the window in the wall where the wives of the Sultans were thrown out when old and useless. (Mr. B. Says this has really been done up to the present time). The old Sultan was allowed, 61 at the time of the revolution, to retain four of his wives. The present one had four when he came to power and has married two since he is allowed one a year. But the palace to which we went is now occupied by a collection of Kings treasures the richness of which you could hardly believe.
