To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

After this I visited the principal manufactories of Geneva, Neuchatel, Munich, Vienna, Dresden, Berlin, Hamburg, Cassel, London and York. At the exposi- tion I did not have the fullest facilities afforded me, and not only was I unable to get into one of the principal cases, but I was positively forbidden to con- tinue my drawings; whilst one well known maker would not only not permit me to make any tests of the graduation of his theodolite, but would not allow me see his graduating engine. Outs...ide of Paris I was permitted to see every graduating engine of the noted manufacturers, and afforded facilities for the ex- aminations of their productions. But on account of the commercial depression which was overshadowing all business in Europe, as well as the United States, the number of the larger instruments on hand was very few. In some work- shops I found that not over 20 per cent, of the usual number of workmen were employed.
Besides the mechanical construction of the instruments, I was particularly anxious to study the capacities of the different graduating engines, in order to judge, in a measure, of the probable value of the results.
