What reading level is The Great Round World And What is Going On in It, Vol. 1, No. 57, December 9, 1897 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The ambassador informed the Sultan that, in case of refusal, he shouldleave Constantinople, and sever all diplomatic relations with Turkey, and that warships should proceed to Mersina and bombard it.
The Sultan did not like to be treated in this way, and took time todecide what he should do.
The ambassador sent a second letter, when he had waited as long as hethought right for an answer to his first, with the added demand thatTurkey should also pay the claims of the Oriental Railroad Company, a...ndthat the matter should be decided inside of eight days.
The claim of this railroad company was for carrying troops during thewar, and the bill for this service had not been paid.
Now the Oriental Railroad Company is not owned by Austria, but byAustrian citizens, and it was an unheard-of thing for a government toseek to collect the private debts of her citizens at the cannon's mouth. Europe has, however, been doing remarkable things to Turkey for manyyears past.
The Sultan dared not refuse Austria, any more than Bulgaria, until thepeace with Greece was signed, and so was forced to agree to all ofAustria's demands.
