What reading level is The Big Game Fishes of the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Up into the air went the silver king on the crest of a big roller, falling broadside and still hooked, as I had with the big multiplier kept a taut line; then it stopped and came toward me, sweeping around in the arc of a circle, making a splendid leap so near the boat that I fancied I heard the boatman gasp; perhaps it was myself. Nothing could be more gamy, more magnificent, than the play of this fish, as rushing, leaping, coming in, bearing off, always on the surface, it fought its gallant f...ight for fifteen minutes or more, until I brought it successfully to the boat. As near as I could estimate, the fish was six feet in length, as we lost it after having towed it nearly to the beach a mile distant.
By this time two other anglers were playing tarpons, and the scene was intensely exciting and sensational, especially as a gaffed tarpon very nearly wrecked a neighboring boat, overturning gaffer and angler in the melee. Tarpons were now leaping here and there, and I turned my attention to attempts to photograph them, one angler forcing his fish to jump for my benefit and 248 Big Game Fishes with a thirty-seven cotton line endeavoring to trip or throw it in the air.
