What reading level is Humanity : a Sporting And Military Story From the Very Successful Drama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

This latter force is practically infinite compared with the work it v^rould have to perform in shearing the crust, but it has been shown that the limit to the space through which it can have acted, owing to the small amount of the globe's contraction, is so quickly reached, that it cannot fully explain the pheno- mena. The case is entirely different with regard to the theory now suggested. Here the force (1) is limited, since it never can exceed, or indeed practically reach, the pressure of a c...olumn of the earth's crust, viz. about 23,547,900 pounds, or 10,066 tons, upon the square foot, but there is no limit to the space through which it might act, so long as the fissures did not reach the surface. The limit imposed is the resistance which the crust offers to shearing. And it is probable that this may have been reached, where a tract has been thickened to such an extent, that its surface has been elevated to the normal height of the highlands of the globe.
The direction orthogonal to a fissure in which motion would take place when the crust yielded, would depend upon its rigidity; and it is conceivable that, although thicker beneath continental areas, it may be weaker there, because less homo- geneous and less dense ; and we know that surfaces of rupture, once formed and faced with slickenslide, are ready prepared for repeated movements.
