What reading level is Practice of Architecture Containing the Five Orders of Architecture And An Add book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The height of the cornice varies from twenty-one to thirty-two minutes. The frieze and architrave of the Temple of Minerva are each forty-three, and the cornice thirty- three minutes in height. The face of the architrave is always one uniform plane, divided from the frieze by a band or tenia of rectan- gular form, which continues along the entablature in one unbroken plane. Under this band, and immediately under each triglyph, are regula, or fillets, to which are attached six conical drops. The... ends of each regula, and the extremities of the drops, are in the same vertical line with the edges of the triglyph above. The drops are frustums of very acute cones, approaching nearly to cylinders. Their height never exceeds- three-fourths of their diameter at the base.
The frieze is decorated with triglyphs and metopes. The trig- lyphs are from twenty-seven and one half to thirty-one minutes in breadth, and about three minutes in thickness. Their length is equal to that of the breadth of the frieze.
