What reading level is Japan And the Japanese As Seen By Foreigners Prior to the Beginning of the Russo-Japanese War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Henry Norman, in describing the " Keal Japan," said, that if Japanese women general- ly adopt foreign dress, the stream of foreign visitors wiU turn aside from Japan ; " thereby implying that these women, with their picturesque costumes and ways, are the principal attraction to tourists. I quite agree with him in this, as well as in his assertion that " prettiness is the rule among Japanese women." Every one interested in this topic knows of the rhapsodies of Sir Edwin Arnold over the Japanese ...musume. It is true that tastes differ ; some tourists have blatantly declared that there is absolutely no female beauty in Japan. I can understand these Clitics, but cannot sympathize with them. If a man's taste leads him to look upon a tall, buxom, queen- ly, Scandinavian, English, or German blonde as his ideal of beauty, he will be disappointed in Japan, for such women do not exist there. But if his ideal of beauty is the graceful, elegant, petite brunette of Andalusia, his eyes will be constantly delighted in Japan by visions of loveliness and grace.
