What reading level is England And Russia in Asia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Russian governors, and are "protected" by Russian troops. The three powerful Khanates of Turkistan — Khiva, Bokhara, and Khokand — acknowledge, though no doubt grudgingly, the supremacy of the White Czar. The Russian soldier has planted his foot on territory which has been supposed to be well within the limits of Afghanistan ; and no one can doubt that, so long as the Russian arms are established at Merv, Sarakhs, above the Rabat pass, and in the Murghab valley, there will always exist a danger... and menace to the Afghan dominions.
Russia has only been able to make these vast conquests by degrees and at long intervals. Be- tween Semipatalinsk and Akmolinsk, the south- ernmost of the Siberian provinces, and the rich and fertile Khanate of Khokand, lie the vast and dreary deserts of the "Great" and "Little Hordes " of the Kirghiz. Between the Caspian and the Khivan capital are other deserts, which once, at least, proved a waste too formidable to be crossed even by a well-equipped Russian army.
