What reading level is Sir Charles Wood's Administration of Indian Affairs From 1859 to 1866 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fourteen brigades of artillery, three regiments of cavalry, and nine regiments of infantry, were added to the establishment of the Queen's regular forces, and this part of the army question was thus satisfactorily brought to a close.
The insubordination of the European troops, how- ever, was not the only difficulty that had to be overcome.
The native army in India consisted, before the mutiny, of seventy-four regular regiments in Bengal, fifty-two in Madras, and thirty in Bombay. The number of ...officers attached to each infantry regiment was twenty-six, to each cavalry regiment twenty-four ; but, according to the invariable practice, a certain portion, not exceeding seven, of these officers was withdrawn from their regiments for service in other Y^ ways. Besides these troops, there were irregular regiments, with only three European officers, and these were generally admitted to be the corps d'elite ; of the whole army.
The regular army had, as far as Bengal was con- cerned, almost ceased to exist; for, whereas before the outbreak of the mutiny there were eighty-four regiments, cavalry and infantry, in 1859 only seven- teen were left, though the officers of all the original regiments remained.
