To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Arklow Sett Quarries, C. S. Parnell. Quarries, Arklow rook. Mottled green (granitone or dioryte) ; not in the market (p. 198). Carnsare, Co. Wexford, Lord Keane's Quarries, Came and Carnsore. Beds, and at the latter a oourse of delicate flesh- oolour ; not as yet in the market (p. 205). Architects do not always use polished granites judiciously. Some stand the weather much better than others ; and the latter, often more or less beautiful, are more suited for inside than for outside work. From a...n examination of outside polished works in Ireland, England, Scotland, Canada, and the United States, I find that many of the granites employed in outside polished work are not suitable therefor, especially some of the largely crystalline varieties. The harder and more compact the stone, the more lasting the polish. [In Ireland the stones that seem best for retaining their polish are basalts and some of the other hard whinstones, if they do not contain iron, very silicious granite, quartz- rock, and quartzyte, as these, after ages of exposure, have retained the polish wrought on them during the glacial period.
