What reading level is Lines From My Log Books book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

During the Russian War, Sir Edmund Lyons and his flag-captain, the late Sir William Mends, being much engaged in the despatch of the expedition into the Sea of Azoff, it fell to Admiral Sir Houston Stewart, the second in command, to arrange the embarkation of stores and guns which had been captured at Kertch. As flag-captain to the second in command this duty devolved upon me. In Kertch there was a very complete small steam factory, for the repair of the Russian steamships, employed in that qua...rter. I knew that we had nothing at Gibraltar at that time to compare to it, and I sug- gested that this steam factory should be embarked and sent down there. The transfer was approved, was carried out, and it added materially to the efficiency of Gibraltar as a repairing station for the Mediterranean fleet. The machinery and other stores captured at Kertch in 1855, had become prize of war, and had been promised, as such, to the navy and army engaged in the expedition. On a variety of pretexts the Treasury had refused to pay anything to those to whom prize-money was due.
