What reading level is Japan Its Architecture Art And Art Manufactures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

This being done, the surface received one or two thin coats of lacquer, each of which was ground down by charcoal, when a final polish was given by the ash of deer's horn applied by soft leather.
Raised work results from the use of lacquer mixed with red oxide of iron. If the "relief" is to be great, this mixture is at first crudely applied by the agency of a spatula and brush. By repeated painting the relief figure is brought gradually to assume something of the form desired. Delicacies of for
...m are now pro- duced by the most skilful grinding with small strips of charcoal. All good relief-work results from processes of painting and grind- ing, and not from anything analogous to carving ; by such means the most delicate and tender of modelled ornament is produced.
When this work has been brought to the form required, the parts may be coloured or covered with gold ; or they may be first covered with some coloured pigment, and then have gold or silver dusted upon them. In the latter case the colour will show through the powder and have a tinted lustrous effect.
