What reading level is The Yellow Danger : the Story of the World's Greatest War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The battle, therefore, so long delayed, must come soon.
Hardy's pulses beat faster ; and his chagrin was in- tense when, after anxious search, he found no conipra- dore willing or able to secure him a passage to Naga- saki. The East was in suspense, waiting for the 135 136 The Yellow Danger future, without interest in the present. It turned a listless ear to Hardy's pleadings.
Nothing remained for it but Port Arthur, where, as he was told, he would be sure to find a willing junk.
But the journe...y was immense. Hardy almost gave up hope of the battle.
But with strong heart he set out. He anticipated no danger. China was not formally at war with Eng- land. He did not know that, even in times of settled quietude, no traveler's life was worth a rush in North- ern China — as in the case of Sir Harry Parkes.
He had with him quite a little retinue ; and he traveled in a palanquin borne between mules.
The northern Chinese were a hard, ferocious, and treacherous race — considerably more so than the southern.
