What reading level is China And the Far East book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He proposes that the foreigner shall no longer get that wealth as heretofore. An old China merchant in Boston told me a few days 286 CHINA AND THE FAR EAST ago, that in his youth it was the normal thing for a New England man to spend five to eight years in China, and then to retire, his fortune made. That has already ceased. It will soon be difficult to be believed. Young China calls for the knowledge of military and naval mat- ters, that it may no longer be a prey to invasion and sign away its... national soul in treaties under the muzzle of European guns. Young China asks for sciences of government and theories of taxation, principles of ad- ministration, to put an end to the reign of universal graft. It demands constitution, codes, laws which will put an end to the curse of extra-territoriality. It de- mands modern languages, particularly English, which is everywhere now the language of banking and of trade.
It demands everything at once — or nearly everything. For it is not just now demanding religious education.
