What reading level is The Story of Burma book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The last of the greater rebels, Bo Shwe, who was a professional marauder even in Thebaw's day, was driven from one fastness to another into the Arakan hills, where he was surprised in October, 1887, by Major Harvey, and slain in a desperate scuffle. It was then that men began to look forward with growing confidence to the time when the Irawadi valley would once more be brought, throughout its whole extent, under the reign of law.
CHAPTER IX THE ENGLISH RAJ THE story of the fifteen years that ha...ve followed the annexation is a story of silent, inconspicuous heroism. The soldier retired, with his gratuity of Rs. 38 and his Burma medal; the civilian came upon the scene. When the British commissioners took charge of the four divisions into which the new territory was parcelled out, they found them- selves confronted by a task beside which the labours of Hercules seemed but the common- place events of a gymkhana meeting. The lot was theirs to evolve order out of the chaos resulting from a century of misrule.
