What reading level is Cities And Sites of Spain a Handbook for Tourists book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At the south door (inside the porch of which hangs a huge crocodile *) : chairs are obtainable, price 5 centimes, and as the service is long, it is well to hire them. It commences with Mass. Then the church is darkened and the priests and choir assemble within the altar rails. When they begin to chant, accompanied by a trombone, the picture over the altar slowly and silently sinks down out of sight, disclosing a violet curtain. As the service proceeds this is replaced by black hangings, which i...n their turn are drawn back, leaving a large crucifix on a golden ground. It is very dimly illuminated, and for some time it is difficult to see any- thing. Towards the conclusion of the service the coverings are replaced one by one. The ceremony is an impressive one, its solemnity being much enhanced by the reverent behaviour of the congregation.
When about to quit the church I was touched on the arm by an acolyte who, my mantilla notwithstanding, had discovered that I was a stranger. He asked me if I wished to see the relics, which were just about to be exposed.
