What reading level is The Salmon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is no doubt that much harm is prevented by these clauses on some salmon rivers ; but, besides that they do not apply to rivers not containing salmon, it will be noted that even in salmon rivers they do not apply to any kind of pollution or nuisance which is not absolutely poisonous to fish. So far as the clauses in the Fishery Acts extend, a river may give out offensive stenches through all its course, and yet escape the law, for it is found that ordinary town sewage, though most offensiv...e to men, is not fatal to fish. " It has been clearly shown, " said the English Commissioners of Inquiry, " that a very considerable amount of pollution may exist at certain points in a river without destroying the salmon or pre- venting them from passing up to spawn, provided the upper waters are favourable for that purpose, and that no artificial obstructions bar their way. " In this way, the fisheries might be preserved, and yet the public nuisance remain. It is true that in various Acts, both English and Scotch, there are enactments against the poisoning of rivers in other respects : for instance, the Scotch Eemoval of Nuisances Act (1856) imposes a penalty of 50 on "any person engaged in the manu- facture of gas, naphtha, vitriol, or dye-stuffs, or in any trade in which the refuse produced in any such manu- facture is used, who shall at any time cause or suffer to be brought or to flow into any streams, etc.
