What reading level is What I Saw in Russia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I visited one prison where the correspond- ent of a London newspaper was detained.
lO 126 WHAT I SAW IN KUSSIA I can only describe this as a sort of able-bodied workhouse. It was clean, much cleaner than most institutions in Russia, and the officers seemed very much on a level with the officers of a casual ward or able-bodied institution in this country. But as for a prison ! It was a little difficult to understand where the prison came in. In addition to seeing the particular prisoner I went t...o see, I saw lots of others, and what astonished me most of all was the sort of freedom of conversation and the atti- tude of the prisoners towards their jailors. The Governor was a young man — I should think about thirty-six years of age. He could not speak English, but was a very well edu- cated man, indeed, much better educated than the average workhouse master I have met in this country, and certainly superior to the old gentleman who had charge of me during the few days I was in Pentonville prison some years ago.
