What reading level is The Dawn of Civilization Egypt And Chalda book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" he had no share in all this.^ Pharaoh took good care not to reject a petition presented so humbly : he proceeded to lavish appointments, titles, and estates on the son in question ; if necessity required it, he would even seek out a wife for him, who might give him, together with her hand, a property equal to that of his father. The majority of these great vassals secretly aspired to the crown : they frequently had reason to believe that they had some right to it, either through their mother ...or one of their ancestors. Had they combined against the reigning house, they could easily have gained the upper hand, but their mutual jealousies prevented this, and the overthrow of a dynasty to which they owed so much would, for the most part, have profited them but little : as soon as one of them revolted, the remainder took arms in Pharaoh's defence, led his armies and fought his battles.^ If at times their ambition and greed harassed their suzerain, at least their power was at his service, and their self- interested allegiance was often the means of delaying the downfall of his house.
