What reading level is Ancient India From the Earliest Times to the First Century Ad book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
C. , Alexander and his army passed over the Indus, probably by means of a bridge of boats at Ohind, about six- teen miles above Attock, into the territories of the king of Taxila, who had already tendered his sub- mission. Taxila (Sanskrit Takshafila)^ the capital of a province of Gandhara, was famous in the time of Buddha as the great university town of India, and is now represented by miles of ruins in the neighbourhood of Shahdheri in the Rawalpindi District. From this city Alexander sent a ...sum- mons to the neighbouring king, Porus, calling upon him to surrender. The name, or rather title, ' Porus, ' probably represents the Sanskrit Paurava^ and means 'the prince of the Purus, ' a tribe who appear in the Rig-veda. Porus, who ruled over a kingdom situated between the Hydaspes (Jhelum) and the Acesines (Chenab), returned a defiant answer to the summons, and prepared to oppose the invaders at the former river with all his forces. The ensuing battle, in which the Macedonian forces finally prevailed, is the most celebrated in the history of Alexander's Indian campaign.
