To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For a land where time is calculated by century units, Jeypore is almost as recent as a '^boom" city on an American prairie. As a fact, its first building was reared only a hundred and seventy- eight years ago ; and this modernity explains thor- oughfares of remarkable breadth that cross each other at right angles. Generations the senior of Jeypore, New York is no better exponent of the checker-board idea. Jeypore is but the setting of a scene harking back to medieval days, however, and is the c...apital of an independent state greater 149 East of Suez in area than Belgium, and from its palace and ju- dicial chambers nearly three million souls are governed. Nowhere in India, outside the great Kajputana province, is it possible to view a pic- ture of happy and contented life, and in the city of Jeypore this is seen in its perfection. This ornate capital on the plains, hemmed in by fortress-crowned hills, is a veritable stronghold of feudal barons and armed retainers, of hermits and monasteries, and is dotted with palaces and public buildings pertaining to the Maharajah's rule.
