What reading level is The Universal Geography Earth And Its Inhabitants volume 10 North East Africa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The original projectors had anticipated a yearly traffic of six niilHon tons; but provision must now be made for a double and even fourfold movement at no distant date. It is projjosed to treble the width of the present channel, so that steamers may pass each other without slacking speed, and also to prevent the whole traffic fi'om being blocked by the grounding of a single vessel, as so frequently hajjpens at present. England, which formerly opposed the opening of the canal, is the very power ...now most urgent in calling for its enlargement. But the results afford a ready explanation of this change of attitude. The canal has in fact become an almost exclusively British highway, and an eighth part of the whole trade of Great Britain, representing a value of over £80, 000, 000, passes through the Isthmus of Pig. 111. — Great Ixteiixatioxal Routes of the Old 'WoaLD.

The British Government has also become one of the chief shareholders, and since the occupation of Egypt it practically controls this route, which it may open or close at pleasure, as was seen before the battle of Tel-el-Kebir, when all traffic was for a short time suspended, in spite of the conventions guaranteeing the neutrality of the passage between the two seas.
