What reading level is A Study of Recent Earthquakes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As Summerville lies six miles to the north-west of the Woodstockepicentre and Charleston 16 miles to the south-east, it is probablethat many of the after-shocks were unfelt and a still greater numberunrecorded. In Charleston, seven shocks, all much slighter than theprincipal shock, were felt during the night of August 31--September 1, and thirty before the end of September. Of these, the shock ofSeptember 3rd, at 11 P. M. , was the strongest, but those which occurredon September 1st, 2nd, 21st,... and 27th were also described as severe, and the remainder as moderate or slight. For weeks after the greatshock, curious sensations were distinctly perceptible during the stillhours of the night "as though the crust of the earth were resting on agelatinous mass in constant motion. " The last shock felt in Charlestonseems to have been one recorded on March 18th, 1887.
At Summerville, many shocks occurred that were scarcely perceptible inCharleston, and those noticed in both places were usually stronger, and the motion more nearly vertical, at Summerville.
