What reading level is The Life of a Fossil Hunter book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" On the second day in these beds, I found frag- ments of the great salamander Eryops, and on the twenty-second of February, I found the first speci- men that I had ever seen of the long-spined reptile, Dimetredon. Of this last I got seventy-five pounds of bones and matrix, preserved in iron ore concre- tions. The teeth are long, recurved, and serrated. I knew little then about these most ancient of all the vertebrates that it has been my fortune to collect, but I shall have more to say about t...hem later. The authorities now place the time when these animals lived twelve million years away. Indeed, " God is not slack as some men count slackness, one day is 2i 8 Life of a Fossil Hunter with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. " The only way in which we can realize the lapse of millions of years is by a study of the work which nature has accomplished in them, depositing vast strata, lifting them up into mountain ranges, and carving out in them flood-plains and mighty can- yons.
