What reading level is General Geography: South America And Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
*=si. Forests. — That the mountains of Germany are low enough to be well wooded, is indicated by the frequent use of the word wald (the German for wood) in the' mountain names. Where the soil is poor, as in the stretches of sand deposited during the Ice Age, much of the lowland is also wooded. All together about one-fourth of the surface of the empire is covered with trees.
The tendency of the German people to useful and sensible economy is well illustrated in their treatment of the woodlands.
...Instead of wantonly devastating them by lire and the axe — as has been done in so many parts of our own country — they maintain an excellent system of forest culture. Trees are planted in place of those that are cut for timber, these are given proper care, and thus the woods continue to be abundant.
By this system, also, forest culture becomes profitable. It is partly due to the encouragement received from the success in Germany, that forest reservations have been established in various parts of the United States, and schools of forestry founded, as in New York, for the purpose of studying how to care properly for our woods.
