What reading level is An Introduction to General Geography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Vicksburg and many other river ports on the Lower Mississippi are on such bluffs. As the water flows around the curve the stream has a greater velocity around the concave bank than around the convex bank. Thus the concave bank will be undercut and steep while a deposit on the opposite side of the stream will cause the convex bank to shelve gently to the HIGH UtSJ3£R-Cur B/\*K Fig. 76. water (Fig. 76). And, in general, we find that materials worn from the undercut concave bank are deposited at t...he next convex part lower down on the same bank. The tendency is therefore for the course to become more wind- ing, until whole loops are cut off. If the land is elevated, or if the rainfall is increased, the river may cut its bed deeper into the flood plain, and as it finds its new lower level, swinging from side to side, it cuts away the greater part of its old flood plain, and builds up a new one at a lower level. Often portions of the old flood plain are left high up on the sides of the valley.
