What reading level is Geology And Natural Resources of Rutherford County Tennessee book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The platy layers vary from 1 to 6 inches in thickness, averaging 2 or 3 inches, and consist of a great variety of limestone of a gray, dove or drab color. Some layers are dense and unfossiliferous, others coarse, granular and crystalline; some are made up almost wholly of Plectambonites, of Pianodema. Of ramose Bryozoa, of flabellate Bryozoa, of Leperditia, or of a combination of fossils; some beds are sandy, some laminated, and some mottled. Ripple-, rill-, and wave-marks are common.
The Leban...on and Pierce formations are very similar in lithological characters, and when a thin, isolated outcrop of platy limestone is found it is often very difficult to tell whether it is Lebanon or Pierce. In such cases the only safe guide is fossils.
Outcrops exposing the whole of the formation may be seen at many places in the county. The following section, taken at Kittrell, is representative of the formation anywhere in the county, although other sections will differ in details.
Section one-half mile south of Kittrell, from Cripple Creek to top of hill: Hermitage Feet 10.
