What reading level is Two Years in China Narrative of the Chinese Expedition From Its Formation in a book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The two officers who had fallen, Major Beecher, of the Indian Army, Deputy Quarter Master General, a very old officer, who had served ably in the Burmese war, and Lieutenant Fox, first of the " Nimrod, " have united the regret of all by their characters and services. The same shot took off the legs of Lieutenant Fox, and of Mr. Kendall, his shipmate, the gunnery mate of the "Nim- rod ;" the former fell a victim to his wound, the latter has sur- vived amputation. I thought it would gratify Mr. K...endall to give him an acting commission as lieutenant of the "Nimrod" in Lieutenant Fox's vacancy, on the field of battle, until your plea- sure is known, though his wound will disable him from doing his duty perhaps for some time, and may oblige him to go home.
I have the honour to enclose lists of the officers who have been personally engaged in the operations on shore, and afloat in boats, but it must be remembered that the duties and the fatigues of Commander Pritchard, of the " Blenheim, " and of those who re- mained on board their respective ships, were increased in the same ratio as their numbers were diminished, and that the ultimate suc- cess is the attainment of the whole body, each working in his par- ticular sphere.
