What reading level is India Illustrated With Pen And Pencil book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In front of it is the factory, and at some distance miserable huts in which the coolies live.^ In the cultivation of the land, bullocks are used for draught and carriage. The Bengal plow is much the same as the Greek or Roman one. "The English have no idea," says Sir J. B mAMf^^ BULLOCK CARRIAGE.
Phear, " of the extreme poverty of the bulk of the Bengal population. Seven rupees a month will support a whole family. Food is the principal item, and prob- ably one rupee eight annas a month will suf...fice to feed an adult man, and twelve annas a woman." Yet the salt tax alone averages annually a hundred and twelve annas per head upon the entire population. " Famine," says another experienced writer, " is the horizon of the Indian villager; insufficient food is the foreground.
And this is the more extraordinary, since the villager is surrounded by a dreamland of plenty. Everywhere you see fields flooded deep with millet and wheat. The village and its old trees have to climb on to a knoll to keep their feet out of the glorious poppy and the luscious sugar-cane.
