What reading level is This World of Ours book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From Yaroslavl, where I boarded a passenger boat, to the river's mouth, was seventeen hundred miles; but it is navigable for full two thousand. One may call this river's width, through the heart of Russia, five hundred yards, and thirty-nine towns and a thousand villages lie upon its banks. The right bank was always the higher, rising often to two hundred feet; where, if it were not the forest, might be perched a village, or a solitary church. The lower, left bank gave a far view over the plain...; which changed from tilled land to pasture, and pasture to forest, as we swept steadily by. Numerous beacons stood on the banks, and lines of buoys marked the shallower water; the whole of these being lit up at night.
By the month of November, this great waterway would be frozen again for the winter, but now the stream of traffic was interminable. Here, steaming up- river, comes a fine passenger boat. Following her comes a big tank steamer, carrying petroleum from Baku, or some other well on the shore of the Caspian.
