What reading level is Days With Industrials: Adventures And Experiences Among Curious Industries book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Now, it can't be said as I'm an interested party, becos I never worked in a signal- box, nor any of my folks, and my own father is a driver, and 'ave been so nearly all his life, leastways all my hfe, and long 'fore I was born. I speak what I feel about a set of men as deserve much better nor they get, but that ain't sayin' much now'days, though, after all, 'tis a'most sayin' everything. They have long hours, hard work, and little pay, and they work with the head just as much as the manager of ...the line does. The slightest slip on their part might lead to no end of disaster — loss of life and loss of limb, and pain and sorrow all round.
Digitized by VjOOQIC A RAILWAY WHISTLE, 211 And yet how often do we hear of efforts made by the poor signalmen to get is. or is. 6d. a week advance of wages ! Why, we should hear something else than complaints about whistles if the public only knew what rests, continually on the signalman's care and correct- ness ; that is, the safety and lives of themselves, their wives and children, their friends and relatives, for every- body travels nowadays, at least goes down once a year to get a whiff o' country air or a waft o' sea-breeze ; and certainly they could not get to their destinations with despatch, and in safety and peac^, if it were not for the care and attention of the signalman in his box, with his clocks and telegraphs, his shafts and record-book, and all the rest of it" I quite agree with my friend in this plea for the rail- way signalmen of the United Kingdom.
