What reading level is Geographical Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These flat, alluvial patches may be seen even in tor- rents, sometimes reaching from one cascade to the other. ... It is easy to perceive that these patches must be liable to constant change. They must be perpetually shortened by the recession of the lower barrier, and lengthened by the recession of the upper one. . . . These principles are eternally at work on all valleys, from the smallest to the largest (174-176).
Greenwood's use of " horizontal '* in describing the lower parts of valleys is... curiously inexact in contrast to his keenness in recognizing the difference between what we should now call local base-levels and general base-levels, and also in recognizing that the aggradation of a flood plain is related to the " forward lengthening of the delta." The Balanced Condition of Rivers. Turning now more particu- larly to the problem of river action, we find that the balance between erosion and deposition, attained by mature rivers, intro- duces one of the most important problems that is encountered in the discussion of the geographical cycle.
