What reading level is The Screw Propeller Who Invented It With Illustrations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Wilson, been quietly remitted to the Woolwich Yard routine, the verdict might have been "there is nothing in it. " and the hopes of the inventor, as well as the progress of steam navigation, indt finitely Since 1841, the royal naval authorities, who in 1833 backed the sid- paddles, have adopted the screw in most of their ships, and Mr. Smith stands before the world as the originator of an idea which has more than anything else contributed to the extraordinary development of our steam marine wit...hin the last twenty years. We can make allowance for the feeling under which Mr. Wilson contrasts his own bad with Mr. Smith's good luck. The latter, however, would have shared the same fate had his invention like that of the former, been sent to a couple of Government underlings, evidently utterly incapable of giving an opinion upon it. But Mr. Wilson does not stand alone as a victim of Government discouragement Captain Ericcson, it seems, was even with Mr. Smith in point of time in the inven- tion of a screw, with which he towed a vessel at the rate of 10 miles an hour.
