What reading level is Pleasures of the Telescope book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The ring mountainLandsberg, on the equator, and near the center of the visible easternhemisphere, is worth watching because Elger noticed changes of color inits interior in 1888.
Bullialdus, in the midst of the _Mare Nubium_, is a very conspicuous andbeautiful ring mountain about thirty-eight miles in diameter, with walls8, 000 feet high above the interior.
Those who wish to see the lunar mountains in all their varying aspectswill not content themselves with views obtained during the advance of...the sunlight from west to east, between "new moon" and "full moon, " butwill continue their observations during the retreat of the sunlight fromeast to west, after the full phase is passed.
It is evident that the hemisphere of the moon which is forever turnedaway from the earth is quite as marvelous in its features as the partthat we see. It will be noticed that the entire circle of the moon'slimb, with insignificant interruptions, is mountainous. Possibly theinvisible side of our satellite contains yet grander peaks and cratermountains than any that our telescopes can reach.
