What reading level is The Story of the Herschels book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He convinced himself, by long and patientresearches, that the luminous envelope of the great "orb of day" wasneither a liquid nor an elastic fluid; that it was in certain respectsanalogous to the clouds which wreathe our mountain-summits and fertilizeour plains; that it floated in the solar atmosphere. Thence he came tothe conclusion that the Sun has two atmospheres, endowed with motionsquite independent of each other. An elastic fluid, now known as the_photosphere_, is in course of continual f...ormation on the dark ruggedsurface of the solar mass; and rising, on account of its specificlightness, it forms the _pores_ in the stratum of reflecting clouds;then, combining with other gases, it produces the irregularities orfurrows in the luminous cloud-region. When the ascending currents arepowerful, they create those appearances which astronomers designate the_nuclei_, the _penumbrae_, the _faculae_.
Such was Herschel's explanation of the mode of formation of the solarspots; and allowing it to be well-founded, we must expect to find--whatis, indeed, the case--that the Sun does not always and regularly pourforth equal quantities of light and heat.
