What reading level is Militarism a Contribution to the Peace Crusade book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even to-day the Turkish peasant, after having paid the tithe of his produce to the tax-collector, has been forced to submit to the exaction of the vali or governor, those of the mutusarif, or prefect, of the caimacanor, sub- prefect ; and if anything escapes the rapacity of all these officials, the wretched peasant may yet come in for a regiment on march through the country, to whose nutriment he has to contribute. The agriculturists, ruined by taxes and usury, finally go to swell the ranks of ...mendicants, who- form the base of town populations, or they seek the post of servant or parasite in some rich house, whilst ;the boldest become brigands in the wildest and most deserted regions. For some time past brigandage has flourished in Turkey, and has been one of its greatest scourges. It has grown so much in strength and audacity, that the brigands now venture under the very gates of Smyrna and Salonicus, and plunder the environs of Constantinople. But the brigands, like the usurers and officials, are a class who live in a great measure by extorting taxes from the peasantry.
