What reading level is A Method of Transporting Live Fishes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The insides of the cans were covered with sponges wired into wire fencing and pressed against the interior of the can, the sponges swelling when wet and forming a perfectly soft pad for the fishes. These cans were lowered by a derrick into the tanks of the tug, where men standing in the water transferred the fish to them by means of very wide fine-mesh nets, never touching the fish with their hands. As each can was filled, which was done with great rapidity, it was hoisted to the deck and cover...ed with a tin cap which had an inner false bottom perforated with small holes. With this, at the slightest tip from the horizontal, water flowed into the perforations and dropped back in a shower, thus aerating itself. The moment a dray was loaded it was driven away, not carefully but at a run or fast trot, to the aquarium, the rapid motion being less dangerous to the fish than a long swing.
The original and distinctive features of this method of transporting live fishes are the sponge-lined tanks and the self-aerating device.
