What reading level is James Watt book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sixty-five engines peryear--prodigious for these days--nothing like this was ever heard ofbefore. Two thousand per year is the record of one firm in Philadelphiato-day, but let us boast not. Perhaps one hundred and twenty-nine yearshence will have as great a contrast to show. The day of small factories, as of small nations, is past. Increasing magnitude, to which it is hardto set a limit, is the order of the day.
So far all was well, the heavy clouds that had so long hoveredmenacingly over Boul...ton and Watt had been displaced once more by clearskies. But no new machinery or new manufacturing business startswithout accidents, delays and unexpected difficulties. There wasnecessarily a long period of trial and disappointment for which thesanguine partners were not prepared. As before, the chief trouble lay inthe lack of skilled workmen, for although the few original men in Sohowere remarkably efficient, the increased demand for engines hadcompelled the employment of many new hands, and the work they couldperform was sadly defective.
