What reading level is A History of the Vegetable Kingdom book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The prodigious accumulations of these plants were first encountered by the early Por- tuguese navigators. Columbus compares them to extensive inundated meadows, and states, that they absolutely retarded the progress of his vessels, and threw the stdlors into consternation.
Such accumulations occur on each side of the equator, in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans; but the sea particularly denominated Mer do SargasaOy by the Portuguese, stretches between the 18th and 22d parallels of north
... lati- tude, and the 25th and 40th meridians of west longitude. Humboldt describes the two banks of sea weed that occur in the great basin of the northern Atlantic ocean. ^'The most extensive is a little west of the meridian of Fayal, one of the Azores, between latitude 25® and 36°. Vessels returning to Europe, either from Monte Video or the Cape of Good Hope, cross the bank nearly at an equal distance from the Antilles and Can- aries. The other occupies a much smaller space, between 22® and 26®, eighty leagues west of the meridian of the Bahama islands.
