What reading level is Mohammed And Mohammedanism Microform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Is not, so argue tlie Musalman doctors, the Prophet of Mecca the other . > HISTORY OF THE KORAN. 149 still underlies the life of the vast fabric of the Mohammedan world. In my First Lecture I com- pared and contrasted the Koran with the Bible ; but it is necessary, perhaps, to say something more of its leading characteristics, or the want of th^m. The Koran defies analysis, for that presupposes something like method in the thing to be analysed. It can hardly be characterised by any one epithet,... for there is not a single Sura of any length which sustains a uniform character throughout. It has often been re- marked that there is no more striking proof of the discrepancies of national taste than the diametrically opposite opinions held by the cultivated classes of East and West on the literary merits of the Koran. Having performed repeatedly, for the purpose of these Lectures, a task w^hich Bunsen and Sprenger and Renan all pronounce to be almost impossible — that of reading the Koran continuously from beginning to end, both in the orthodox and chronological order — I have acquired a better right, perhaps, than most people to endorse the superficial opinion that dulness is, to a European who is ignorant of Arabic, the pre- vailing characteristic of the book as a whole, until he begins to make a minute study of it.
