What reading level is Famous Engineers of the Nineteenth Century book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To Robert Stephenson the construction of that locomotive had presented obstacles almost as great as those which the Chat Moss bog had offered to his father; for mechanical engineering was then only in its tutelage, and the younger Stephenson was necessitated to devise appliances for engine-building, just as the elder had to meet the emergencies of early railway-making, by calls upon his own ingenuity, energy, and application. But in all his per- plexities Robert Stephenson found in his wife a s...ympathising helpmate, ever ready to share his cares, and to obliterate the troubles and anxieties of his daily life by the strength of her affection and the cheerfulness of their home.
The success of the " Rocket " brought fame to the firm from whose factory it had issued, as the harbinger of a new era in the history of the Locomotive and inland conveyance. The time had come when slow-paced travelling engines must be supplanted by swifter and more reliable machines, of which the famous winner at the Rainhill competition was but the pioneer.
