What reading level is A Hundred Days in the East a Diary of a Journey to Egypt Palestine Turkey in book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is gratifying to notice a great many men busily occupied in cleaning cotton, using for that purpose a handbow, simi- lar to that with which hatters disentangle hair or felt ; women and girls are seated outside the doors dressing and othermse manipulating cotton. I also notice silk and cotton weavers, a number of barbers' shops — not, however, for beard, but head shaving. There are an abundance of blacksmiths, whose anvil is a curiosity of its kind, the face being only five inches by two. The...re are two or tln-ee coppersmiths, who use neither mandril nor shape-block, simply beating the metal into form with the hammer. Vessels of this substance are used by the upper classes for both culinary and ablutory pur- poses.
But most pleasing of all, the modem Shechem has her factories, one in particular for the manufacture of olive oil. The mode of extracting the fluid is very simple : the fruit or berries are picked by children as cherries are in Kent, and im- mediately carried to the mill, which is merely a large stationary stone with a cavity, into which another, cut to fit the depres- sion, revolves, turned by an ox or by the hand ; the mass of pulp when withdrawn is wrapped in a mat, put vmder the pressure of a beam on the lever principle, sometimes wdth a screw ; the oil is received into vessels, and after being heated is secured in jars, and thus ready for the market.
