What reading level is Turkey Old And New Historical Geographical And Statistical volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Giur^^evo, a Wal- lachian town, wliich was the bridge-head of llustclmk, has played a conspicuous part in all the wars between the Turks and Russians ; it was dismantled after the war of 1829. The Russians seized upon Rustchuk in 1810, after a very long siege, several assaults and a battle won by them at Baffin, a village situated near the Danube, midway between Sistova and Rustchuk.
Below Rustchuk, the river, which has flowed hitherto in a single bed and intersected by islands, begins to form ...large deviations on either shore from its main stream which inundate the country to an extent of from fifteen to twenty kilometres. The right bank continues to com- mand the left : the former being skirted by the lowest slopes of the Bulgarian mountains, which terminate in picturesque hills ; the latter is bordered by a low, swampy tract, intersected by secondary arms or pools of stagnant water, alternating with wooded islands or covered with gigantic reeds. The Danube further on resumes its single bed and reaches Tourfonkai, a small town situated facing the confluence of the Ardjich, and which has been recently fortified on account of its remarkable position : it connects, in fact, the two great strongholds of Rustchuk and Silis- tria, and stands exactly at the point at which, between those two places, the banks are equally low and present points where crossing over is easily effected, especially from the left to the right shore.
