What reading level is Petrograd Past And Present book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
By the entrance facing the river is a votive chapel commemorating the escape of Alexander II. from the bullet of an angry Pole.
Like other rulers, this monarch suffered for the mis- deeds of his predecessors.
The Fontanka Canal, once the River Fontanka, is now seen, spanned by a short arched bridge ; at the end of the embankment is the Alexander Bridge, one of Petrograd's finest ; across it lies the Finnish Side, where dwell thousands of workmen employed by the big breweries and factories. From... the Finnish rail- way station, near here, excursions can be made to Ozerke, Lanskaja, Schouvalofva, Pargolova, Terrioki and many other delightful places on the Finnish State Line ; also to Wiborg, which for many years was the frontier between Sweden and Finland and Russia.
The banks of the river are here flanked by mills and ironworks, the majority facing the stream, which is usually crowded with barges, heavily laden, from the interior via the Mariensky and other canals. This part of Petrograd is known as the Great Ochta, and used to be a healthy district.
