What reading level is Six Lectures On Astronomy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The character of life is given to our earth by the individuals inhabiting it. It is while man ex- ists upon the earth that we look at it as a matter of interest. Prof. Hyatt, of Boston, has dwelt upon the fact of the de- cadence of types of life and he goes to show that man has passed the higher development of the physical part of life, although mental development can be expected yet. Sup- posing that not to be true, (and I suppose Prof. Hyatt is mistaken) there is another view according to the... old prophecy, that as life was once destroyed by water, so the earth is to be dissolved by fire. We know how long that belief has prevailed. If death comes to the earth in that way, it may simply be by a glowing of the sun far surpassing what we have at the present day. Death may come upon the earth by the intensity of heat poured upon it. Here you see a picture of a star, in the constellation of the crown which appeared suddenly in a conflagration some time ago, giving out hundreds of times its accustomed heat, there you see the bright lines produced by the conflagration of hydrogen over that star.
