What reading level is Pioneers in India book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But apparently he did not reach his destination.
Nearly every year that followed Lancaster's return in 1603 saw ships starting on the voyage round the Cape of Good Hope from India to Malaysia, to China and Japan, either on behalf of the Chartered Company, or of other companies, or of private adventurers (all these enterprises becoming fused by 1709 into the " United Company of Merchants Trading to the East Indies", or, as it came to be known later, "The Honourable East India Company "). These e...nterprises naturally provoked the furious opposition of the Portuguese and bitter hos- tility from the Dutch. The Portuguese fought out the question with Sir HENRY MIDDLETON at Cambay in 1611, and with Captain Best at Swalli, the port of Surat, in 1615, and Captain Shilling off the Coast of Malabar in 1620.
For some years the hostility of the Portuguese and their intrigues with native princes prevented any definite establishment of English trading factories on the coasts of Southern India. To revenge themselves for this action on the part of the Portuguese, the English sided with the Persians in 1622 and used their artillery and ships to assist the Persian forces of Shah Abbas to attack the Portuguese forts and forces on the Islands of Kishin and Hormuz.
