What reading level is Studies in Nature Country Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We shall find that inside the tube the mercury stands about thirty inches higher than in the little vessel outside. If we fix a scale to measure this height, we shall see that the reading varies from day to day, and in this way we observe something which depends on the pressure of the atmosphere. Now let us look again at the little map in the newspaper. Besides the arrows showing the direction of the wind, are some dotted lines, marked 29-9, 30*1, 30-3, and so on. These lines are drawn through ...all places at which the baro- meter stands at the same height, the figures showing the number of inches between the level of the mercury inside and outside the tube of the instrument. Now these heights measure the pressure of the atmosphere, and therefore by looking at the map we can see at once how the pressure of the atmosphere, that is, the weight of the air, varied over the west of Europe at six o'clock the previous evening.
If we look at these barometer lines when the wind is blowing in a circle in the opposite direction to the hands of a clock, we shall see that the pressure is lowest towards the centre, and higher the further we go outwards.
