What reading level is The Enemy Submarine book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this connection the distinction between the Dreadnought and the pre- Dreadnought is important. In the Dreadnought type the bottom has been more effectively divided than in the previ- ous construction, and this double bottom and division sys- tem has been extended with each successive ship; and though a full test has probably not been made, the pro- tection is undoubtedly very complete. Notwithstanding this, the case of the "Lusitania" was disquieting, for the underwater construction of the s...hip was to an extent that of the latest Dreadnoughts. In both the "Lusitania" and the "Titanic" the watertight doors were closed; and since apparently none of the present Dreadnoughts have en- countered the latest type of torpedo from a submarine, and none have been subjected to the experience of the "Titanic" with an iceberg, the effect of any of these con- ditions on the latest ship construction of the navy is still a matter of speculation. There are two ways of affording complete protection to the bottoms of the vessels from submarine attacks either to build boats that will destroy the submarine, or cover the bottom of the ship with armor protection sufficient to resist the torpedo.
