What reading level is The Transvaal Question, From a Swiss Point of View book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Foreigners crowded to the spot. In the first instance they were mostly adventurers, as is always the case when gold mines are discovered. Then, gradually, as the industry increased and other mines were opened, more especially when the working of the deeper layers which existed ^had to be carried out by more 13 elaborate methods, quite a multitude of people settled in the country.
The number of foreigners, " uitlanders," soon became, as it is at the present time, double that of the Boers. They w...ere gathered together upon land which covers only a very small part of the oouDtry, hardly a hundredth. The largest group of them live in the town of Johannesburg, which has nearly 100,000 inhabitants, whilst the capital, Pretoria, a short distance off, contains only a tenth of that number.
From the very first Kruger and his countrymen viewed the new- comers with great suspicion, and they forthwith took means to stem this torrent of invasion, whilst turning it to their own advantage. From the time of the proclamation of independence, the Grondwet, a hazy and confused charter, shewing forth the principles upon which the State was founded, was once more put in force.
