What reading level is An Elementary Class-Book of General Geography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In Eastern Turkestan the chief town is YAEKAND (120); the native Mohammedan city is overlooked by a great Chinese fortress with a strong garrison since its subjugation in 1878. In Kashgar large quantities of cloth are woven from the marvellously fine wool of the country. Khotan is prized xii PROVINCES OF THE CHINESE EMPIRE 187 by the Chinese for the precious jade pebbles which abound. All the towns are situated on streams running east from the great mountainous amphitheatre, of which the Pamir ...occupies the centre, to join the Tarim Eiver. This is as long as the Danube, and flows eastward, to lose itself in Lob-nor, a reed-choked lake in a barren desert, where the wild camel lives. Few Europeans have ventured amongst the fierce tribes of this region, and still fewer have returned to tell the tale.
289. Jungaria, north of the Tarim basin, slopes westward towards Lake Balkash, between the Tian-shan and Great Altai ranges. Although presenting the easiest over-land passage from Europe to China, and although it was the site of a great empire in the seventeenth century, it is now a poor province, peopled by Chinese exiles and Kalmuk refugees from Eussia.
