What reading level is Handbook of Drawing book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

And in making such notes and studies a first inquiry should be, — In what does the vitality, and spirit, and charm of that figure lie ? and then the aim must bo to express this. It will often be 'found in a scarcely per- ceptible bend of line, or touch of dark, or in some subtle arrangement of colour.
303. If we consider well the works of Turner, Staafield, Copley .. Fielding, J. D. Harding, David Cox, and many others, we shall find that they appear to have aimed at expressing their figures and
... animals in a (jeneral way, but always truly in their forms and ten- dencies, seldom attempting any detailed facial or bodily expression. They should be drawn as they would be felt when looking at the picture, rather than as seen when looking directly at them alone. If, when we observe one of Front's figures, we expect to find in it a likeness to nature, we shall be disappointed ; but his figures taken as parts of a whole picture are in admirable * keeping' and harmony.
304. Some elementary rules ajDplicable to the drawing of figures have already been given in the earlier chapters of this book.
