What reading level is The New Map of Asia (1900-1919) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mr. Hay insisted upon definite replies. Then came the Boxer re- bellion, which not only saved the powers from taking a definite stand for or against "the open door," but enabled them to defeat Mr. Hay's in- itiative. The United States declined to partici- pate in the shelling of the Taku forts, and showed reluctance in the famous Peking relief expedi- tion. There is no doubt that the action of the 417 THE NEW MAP OF ASIA international squadron did much to aggravate the Boxer troubles. All the p...owers showed too great alacrity to take advantage of the situation created by the anti-foreign outbreak. Instead of making an honest effort to establish the causes of the uprising and to allay the agitation by assur- ing the Chinese of their good-will and good inten- tions politically toward China, the powers acted as if they wanted the disorder to increase to the point where intervention would be justified. The propaganda in the European press was very much like that which later appeared in regard to Fez when the French were seeking for a means to cir- cumvent the Act of Algeciras, and the reports circulated about Cairo when Great Britain wanted to hasten the acknowledgment by her allies of the protectorate over Egypt before a peace treaty was presented to Germany.
