What reading level is Ancient Egypt book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
According to one writer, he placed a fleeton the Euphrates, and in an action which took place with the Assyrians, defeated and chased the enemy for a distance of between seven and eightmiles. He certainly upon some occasions made his attacks on Syria andPhœnicia from the sea; nor is it improbable that his maritime forcesreduced Cyprus (which was conquered and held in a much less flourishingperiod by Amasis) and plundered the coast of Cilicia; but a judiciouscriticism will scarcely extend the vo...yages of his fleet, as has beendone by another writer, to Crete, and the islands of the Ægean, thesea-boards of Greece and Asia Minor, the southern coast of Italy, Algeria, and the waters of the Euxine! There is no evidence in thehistorical inscriptions of Thothmes of any such far-reachingexpeditions. The supposed evidence for them is in a song of victory, put into the mouth of the god, Ammon, and inscribed on one of the wallsof the great temple of Karnak. The song is interesting, but it scarcelybears out the deductions that have been drawn from it, as will appearfrom the subjoined translation.
