What reading level is Asa Gray His Life And Work book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As its discontinuance dates from the time of his acceptance of the Fisher Professorship of Natural History in Harvard College, and its resumption immediately followed his release from official duties, which, I learn, took place in 1873, giving him five years for the preparation of the volume of 1878, the quite natural inference would be that his official work left him no time to give to the preparation of the "Flora. " But we are debarred from this conclusion by the detailed and emphatic statem...ents of Mrs. Treat concerning the vast amount of labor he did outside his college duties.

He was so familiar with all sides of the scientific questions bearing upon his specialty, so just and discriminating and candid, that his opinions, criticisms and advice were eagerly sought for. His Reviews, Book-notices, and Biographical sketches are almost endless.
