What reading level is A Transatlantic Tunnel, Hurrah! book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
BOOK THE FIRSTTHE LINK BETWEEN THE LANDS BEGUNI. A HURRIED MESSAGE AND A DANGEROUS MOMENTLeaving Paddington Station the Fly-ing Cornishman seemed little differ-ent from any other train. Admittedly the appointments were cleaner and newer and there was a certain opulence to the gold tassels that fringed the seat cushions in the first-class carriage, but these were just a matter of superficial decoration. The differ-ences that made this train unique in England, which was the same as saying unique i...n the entire world, were not yet apparent as the great golden engine nosed its way over the maze of tracks and switches of the station yards, then out through the tunnels and cuttings. Here the roadbed was ordinary and used by all trains alike. Only when the hulking locomotive and its trailing cylinder of closely joined coaches had dived deep under the Thames and emerged in Surrey did the real difference show. For now even the roadbed became un-usual, a single track of continuously welded rails on specially cushioned sleepers that was straighter and smoother than any track had ever been before, sparkling in deep cut-tings that slashed a direct channel through the chalk of the downs, shooting arrow-straight across the streams on stumpy iron bridges, a no-nonsense rail line that changed direction only in the longest and shallowest of curves.
