What reading level is Private Letters of the Marquess of Dalhousie book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For that reason public opinion here reviled me (unjustly) as supine, spiritless, for- getful of the honour and the interest of the nation. For the same act, public opinion at home is already preparing to revile me as quarrelsome, annexations, possessed with a spirit of aggression, and swayed by the lust of territorial acquisition. The papers would show the contrary ; but Indian papers are rarely shown, and never till too late.
You all magnify the affair of the frontier on the North- West. ' The... Times ' misrepresents and exaggerates every- thing. It is a mere border skirmishing, which I have told them from the first must be expected for years to come.
Your observation founded on Mr Game's murder, that it shows the lives of officers in distant stations in the Punjab to be unsafe, is a mistaken one. Mr Carne was in no station, he was not even in British territories. He chose to go beyond our border, among hill tribes, notorious as robbers, who would cut any man's throat for the sake of the buttons in his shirt -neck.
