What reading level is The Fortifications of To-Day : Fire Against Models of Coast Batteries And Parados : Horizontal And Curved Fire in Defense of Coasts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

m., and especially with the bursting shell of 22 c. m., it is seen that with a parados of earth the backward projection of splinters is nearly always less dangerous as to number and as to distance, resulting, as has already been seen, from the greater penetration of the projectiles into the earth, which thus opposes more resistance to the projection of splinters. It seems, moreover, aside from the greater or less penetration of projectiles into earth, that it, by its nature, has the' property o...f holding or, so to say, swallowing the splinters, the singular fact presenting itself that in a second series of experiments at Cirie, in ten shots made with the 22 c. m. howitzer, half with the bursting shell and half with the light shell, there were in all twenty-five splinters thrown out from the parados, none of which went beyond the first row of targets, at only 1 fi meters distance. There is also the fact that in the last comparative 23 experiments the parados of sand always sent backwards more splinters and to a greater distance, and this, too, when the shells burst after stopping.
