What reading level is The Economic Causes of Modern War; a Study of the Period: 1878-1918 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1912 German lines were laid eastward from Aleppo and reached as far as the Euphrates valley, and in 1914 a line was laid east- ward from Bagdad.
The railway had gradually become a part of the Ger- man Drang nach Osten, although it is almost certain that when originally begun it was what it professed to be, a The World War: 1914-1918 163 commercial scheme, pure and simple. 1 It is evident, how- ever, that the possible economic and political importance of this line had come to be realized by t...he Foreign Office at Berlin, and that the government stepped in behind the financiers. In no other way can the part which the Kaiser played in 1898 be interpreted.
The completion of the railroad as proposed would be of the very greatest importance to Germany. Financed by German business men and built by German engineers, it would mean extremely large orders for supplies, placed with German firms, and a correspondingly large boom in German industry. The proposed line was to be some- thing over 1, 700 miles long, and was to throw out impor- tant branch lines to Smyrna, Alexandretta, Aleppo, Damas- cus, and Mecca, thus binding Asia Minor solidly into one, and doing the binding with German bonds.
