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

A falling barometer sig- nifies low pressure and therefore a storm.
Downward currents of air are always being warmed as a result (1) of their approach to land or water which is warmer than the upper air, and (2) of the increased air pressure at lower levels.
The increased pressure condenses the air and as it is condensed, heat is set free. A large area of slowly settling air is called a high. As the tem- perature of such air rises, its capacity for mois- ture increases. Precipitation is not lik
...ely to occur and, in general, highs indicate fair weather.
Older students can be taught the meaning of isobars and isotherms from the weather map.
Our prevailing winds are westerlies. A sudden shift of the wind to the east indicates the ap- proach of a storm from the west. The shift will be accompanied also by a falling barometer, and it can easily be noted that the temperature is rising. Correct the prevalent notion that a hu- mid, cloudy, or foggy atmosphere is heavy. Mois- ture settles when the air is unable to buoy it up.
