What reading level is The Falls of Niagara, With Supplementary Chapters On the Other Famous Cataracts of the World book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The portion which fell was one immense solid rock two hundred feet long, sixty feet wide, and one hun- dred feet deep where it separated from the bank. The noise of the crash was heard like muffled thunder for miles around. Fortunately it fell at noonday, when but few people were out, and no lives were lost. The driver of an omnibus, who, had taken off his horses for their midday feed, and was washing his vehicle, felt the pre- liminary cracking and escaped, the vehicle itself being plunged int...o the gulf below.
In 1850, a canal-boat that became detached from a raft, went down ■ the Canadian Rapids, turned broadside across the river before reaching the Falls, struck amid- ships against a rock projecting up from the bottom and lodged. It remained there more than a year, and when it went down took with it a piece of tjje rock apparently about ten feet wide and forty feet long. At the foot of Goat Island some smaller masses have fallen, and three extensive earth-slides have occurred.
In the spring of 1852 a triangular mass, the vertex of which was just beyond or south of the Terrapin Tower, no NIAGARA.
