What reading level is Report On the Dismal Swamp Canal It Cost Condition And Resources book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The walls are in toler- able condition, but the banks and gates are bad, and the whole should be rebuilt. This lock is at the north end of the summit level.
Culpepper lock is located at the south end of the summit level, and was built in 1820. The greatest width of boats this lock will pass is 16|- feet, and about 100 feet length. At present the gates are new, but the walls are in a miserably dilapidated condition. Many of the face-stone in the chamber are only seven inches square, and are fast... tumbling out into the lock. This lock should be immediately rebuilt.
The next structures are the combined South locks, built in 1835. Each will pass a boat of 21|- feet beam. The upper lock, however, will only admit a boat of 100 to 105 feet in length, while the lower one will pass one over 110 feet in length. A portion of the gates are good, but the mitre-sills and quoins of both locks, and the earth banks backing the main walls, are all in a very bad condition. The main walls, though in quite a fair condition, I do not regard as safe or good.
