What reading level is Earth Features And Their Meaning; An Introduction to Geology for the Student And the General Reader book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
151. — The cicatrice of the Banat (after Suess).
RISE OF MOLTEN ROCK TO THE EARTH'S SURFACE 143 more or less irregular form, no one dimension is of a different order of magnitude from the others. Such masses are commonly de- scribed as bosses, or, if especially large, as batholites (Fig. 152).
Wherever the rock beds appear as though they had been forced up by the upward pressure of the igneous mass, the latter takes the form of a mushroom and has been described as a laccolite (Figs. 479-481, pp.... 441-442). Evidence seems, however, to accumu- late that in the greater number of cases the molten rock has fused its way upward, in part assimilating and in part inclosing the rock which it encountered. This pro- ^ /->>,(-*> ,-^ Crater cess of upward fusion has been likened to the progress of a red hot iron burning its way through a board.
The formation of lava reser- voirs. — The discarding of the earlier notion that the earth has a liquid interior makes it proper in discussing the subject of vol- canoes to at least touch upon the origin of the molten rock material.
