What reading level is The Invention of Lithography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Often it is good to add some finely powdered sand or powdered pumice stone. To prepare this, a portion of the thinnest varnish is heated in a pan till it burns. Then about an ounce of finely powdered mennig (or an- other lead oxide) is stirred in to each sixteen ounces of varnish till all is thoroughly mixed. A rubbing-up ink can be made also by mixing common printer's ink with vegetable oil, tallow, and a very little soap. 124 TEXT-BOOK OF PRINTING FROM THE STONE Each of these colors adheres t...o all those places that have a trace of fat and thus gradually makes faint places in a design receptive again. Later I will describe how to use care in applying this color, so that the entire stone shall not be smutted and spoiled. CHAPTER III CONCERNING ACIDS AND OTHER MATERIALS GENERAL PROPERTIES OF ACIDS Probably most lithographers still believe, as I did once, that the etching with acids prepares the stone, and that the succeeding appli- cation of gum merely increases this preparation. Countless experi- ments have taught me that the exact reverse is true.
