What reading level is A Lecture On the Late Improvements in Steam Navigation And the Arts of Naval War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
About the time of this promotion, the Govern- ment had ordered the Northern part of SWEDEN to be accurately surveyed. It being the desire of the King that officers of the army should be employed in this service, ERICSSON, whose regi- ment was stationed in the Northern highlands, proceeded to Stockholm, for the purpose of sub- mitting himself to the severe examination then requisite to precede the appointment of Govern- ment surveyor. The mathematical education, which he had received under Count... PLATEN, now proved very serviceable. He passed the examina- tion with great distinction, and in the course of it to the surprise of the examiners, showed that he could repeat EUCLID verbatim ; not by the exercise of the memory, which in ERICSSON is not remarkably retentive, but from his perfect mastery of geometrical science. There is no doubt that it is this thorough knowledge of geometry, to 27 which he is indebted for his clear conceptions on all mechanical subjects.
Having returned to the highlands, he entered on his new vocation with great assiduity ; and, supported by an unusually strong constitution, he mapped a larger extent of territory in a given time than any other of the numerous surveyors employed on the work.
