What reading level is Ezra Abbot book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" And the characteristics of the author, as disclosed by it, almost 47 justify the description of him given by a reviewer at the time as "a gentleman of miraculous perseverance, astute- ness, and accuracy" (Christian Examiner for 1861, page 27).
Dr. Abbot's third great bibliographical labor, though from its nature lacking the symmetry and completeness which characterize the model work just described, is ser- viceable to a far larger number of students, in fact, to every one in this country who ...takes interest in Biblical studies. I allude, of course, to the editorial additions which he, in conjunction with the late Prof. H. B. Hackett, contributed to Smith's Dictionary of the Bible.
Of the more than thirteen hundred additions * with which, according to a hasty count, the American edition has been enriched, upwards of a thousand bear the initials of the American editors, of which more than four hundred were from the pen of Dr. Abbot. Many of them, to be sure, are devoted to correcting oversights, supplying omissions, supplementing information, a kind of work making com- paratively little show, but for which a student or a teacher who wishes trustworthy statements is often inexpressibly grateful.
