What reading level is The Adventures of a Special Correspondent book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"An old Turkoman, " said Major Noltitz, "once told me that a husband'spower is at an end now that he cannot thrash his wife without beingthreatened with an appeal to the czar; and that marriage is at an end!" I do not know if the fair sex is still beaten, but the husbands knowwhat they may expect if they knock their wives about. Will it bebelieved that these peculiar Orientals can see no progress in thisprohibition to beat their wives? Perhaps they remember that theTerrestrial Paradise is not f...ar off--a beautiful garden between theTigris and Euphrates, unless it was between the Amou and the Syr-Daria. Perhaps they have not forgotten that mother Eve lived in thispreadamite garden, and that if she had been thrashed a little beforeher first fault, she would probably not have committed it. But we neednot enlarge on that.
I did not hear, as Madam Ujfalvy-Bourdon did, the band playing the_Pompiers de Nanterre_ in the governor-general's garden. No! On thisoccasion they were playing _Le Pere la Victoire_, and if these are notnational airs they are none the less agreeable to French ears.
