What reading level is Round About Calcutta book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Poor schools, free schools, charity institutions, where the smock of the padre and the benignant smile of his wife bring happiness to many a sad young life. Dilapidated buildings, for the funds of charity are low and the roof has all but tumbled — yet here are housed what the gutter has surrendered, and tear-eyed mammas come each evening to peer through 52 ROUND ABOUT CALCUTTA barred gates — ^where they are only allowed in once week- ly — at the little ones toddling in laughter in their simple ...pleasures.
Side streets crouch beneath every window. In hovels, under staircases dwell entire families, the blood of England coursing in their veins — ^together with the blood of India. Are they happy ? Are they contented ? A growing city, cramped by a swamp, has compelled them to take refuge here ; and the pace of improvement is a trifle slow for their sad lot.
But there is a text upon the street for all to see. It gives hope and a promise. A thoroughfare is being^ driven through the quarter, and part of it stands already complete — broad, airy, cheerful.
