What reading level is The Water Works of Brooklyn a Historical And Descriptive Account of the Constru book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The least flow of the streams, guaged in a season of unusual drought, was found not to exceed 20, 000, 000 gallons per diem. The greatest flow has not been ascertained, and can only be inferred from the rain-fall. It has been de- 19 termined by able observers that only 42^ per cent, of the total amount of rain falling in one year finds its way into the ponds, the remainder being lost by evapor- ation and in the supply of springs below the level of the conduit. The rain-records of over 40 years ...place the average rain-fall at 4. 2% inches. At this rate the quan- tity of water brought down by the streams in one year amounts to nearly 19, 000, 000, 000 gallons! The con- sumption of water in the city in 1872 somewhat exceed- ed 8, 000, 000, 000 gallons. The ponds have an united storage capacity of only 57, 000, 000 gallons ; so that ten thousand neglected millions flow annually over their wiers. The daily consumption during the present year has varied with the day of the week from 20, 000, 000 to 2() 000, 000 gallons, and upon one occasion has reached 33, 000, 000.
