What reading level is Japan And the United States : 1853-1921 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This fact, coupled with the abuses of extraterritoriality in China, not only caused constant difl&culties for the Government, but also in many ways hampered the sound progress of the faith.
The long roll of Christian martyrs in China would have been much reduced if the principle of religious toleration had been allowed to develop in that country as rationally as it did in Japan.
\The exclusion laws of Japan had been occasioned by the fears of Christianity as a political agency. So those who opp...osed the suspension of the old laws were most hostile to any compromise with the Western faith, even to the extent of allowing the foreigners to practice it. With the opening of the treaty ports in July, 1859, some mis- sionaries established themselves at Nagasaki and Yoko- hama. The Catholic missionaries at the former port soon learned of the existence, near at hand, of communities of Christians, the descendants of the early converts. In spite of the well-known laws prohibiting the Christian faith, and the treaty provisions which restricted the movement of foreigners to certain limits, the missiona- ries visited the groups, preaching and administering the sacraments in the night.
