What reading level is Boys Second book of Inventions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The signals were, of course, sent continuously, but the inventor was unable to obtain continu- ous results, owing, as he explains, to the fluc- tuations of the height of the kite as it was blown about by the wind, and to the extreme MARCONI'S GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS 221 delicacy of his instruments, which required constant adjustment during the experiments.
Even now that he had been successful, the inventor hesitated to make his achievement public, lest it seem too extraordinary for belief. Finally, ...after withholding the great news for two days, certainly an evidence of self- restraint, he gave out a statement to the press, and on Sunday morning the world knew and doubted; on Monday it knew more and be- lieved. Many, like Mr. Edison, awaited the inventor's signed announcement before they would credit the news. Sir Cavendish Boyle, the Governor of Newfoundland, reported at once to King Edward ; and the cable company which has exclusive rights in Newfoundland, alarmed at an achievement which threatened the very existence of its business, demanded that he desist from further experiments within its territory, truly an evidence of the belief of practical men in the future commercial im- portance of the invention.
