What reading level is From Berlin to Bagdad And Babylon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Curzon has wittily remarked, that, while "it takes four Turks to cheat one Frank, two Franks to cheat one Greek and two Greeks to cheat one Jew, it takes six Jews to 272 FROM BERLIN TO BAGDAD AND BABYLON Jews "all with eyes glittering with the yellow fires of greed" and all, as in the days of the city's former commer- cial prosperity, bent on trade but in transactions far more limited.
I found an additional interest here in the reflection that Aleppo is on the linguistic frontier extending from... Alex- andretta to Biredjik on the Euphrates which separate the peoples of the flowery Arabic speech from those of the more laconic but no less vigorous Turkish. South of this line Turkish ceases to be heard except in the offices of the civil and military administrations of the Ottoman govern- ment.
The Syrians, like the Arabs, are Semites, but of their ancient tongue, the Aramaic, little now remains except a sort of dialect which is now confined to only a few villages on the eastern declivities of the Anti-Libanus.
