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

Be- sides this natural avenue there are six bridges, and the Western Avenue or Boston and Roxbury Mill Dam.
The oldest of the bridges is Charles River Bridge, which leads to Charlestown from the west end of Prince street. Before this bridge was built, people used to pass in ferry boats from Boston to Charlestown, from this point, and most of the Cambridge people were ac- commodated by the same boats. In 1785, a law was passed to authorize certain individuals to build this bridge and take toll o
...f all pas- sengers for forty years. The bridge was finished and opened on the 17th of June, 1786. The length of the bridge and abut- ments is 1503 feet; of the bridge itself, 1357 feet, or rather more than a quarter of a mile.
The term of time for which this bridge may take toll has since been extended to seventy years, which will expire in 1856.
A short distance to the west from Charles River Bridge we find the Warren Bridge, BRIDGES. 125 which was opened on Christmas day, 1 828. Jt was authorized by an act of tlie legislature, in opposition to the wishes of the proprietors of Charles River Bridge.
