What reading level is Persia Past And Present; a book of Travel And Research, With More Than Two Hundred Illustrations And a Map book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' At Abarkuh there is a large hill of ashes, which the inhabitants claim was the fire of Abraham, lighted by Bardah and Salamah.^ But in the Book of the Avesta, which is the book of the Magi, I have read that So'da (Sudabah),' the daughter of Tubba, wife of Kei Kaus, fell in love with his son Kei Khosru (Siavaah).^ She en- deavored to seduce him, but he rejected her, whereupon she told his father that he had tried to dishonor her, which was a lie. There- upon Kei Khosru built a large iire at Ab...arkuh for an ordeal and said : " If I am innocent the fire will not harm me ; if I am guilty, as claimed, the fire will devour me." At this he entered into the fire and came out of it unhurt, without having suffered any harm.
In this way he dispelled the entire charge against him. The ashes of that fire are to be seen at Abarkuh in the shape of a large hill, and to-day it is called the Mountain of Abraham. But Abraham never saw the land of Fars, nor entered it ; he abode in Kutharabba, in the land of Babylon.
