What reading level is John Harvey a Tale of the Twentieth Century book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"The bottom of the furnace was concave, and this re ceptacle was situated under its lowest part, allowing the precious metals to run into it by numerous small aper tures. It was not large, and was shaped somewhat like an inverted cone, at the lowest part of which the discharge vent began. This, sloping gently, pierced the walls of the furnace; and could be opened and closed at two places, separately, or simultaneously, as might be desired; one situated by the receptacle, the other outside the w...alls of the furnace. A trough-like conduit, being a continuation of the vent, extended a short distance out over an iron stand, upon which proper moulds were placed to receive the gold.
"The smallest of these moulds, in inner measurement three inches long, one inch wide and one inch deep and designed to hold one pound of gold only, was placed be neath the end of this trough, and Mr. Harvey with his own hand opened the two slides about one-third of their ex tent.
"For a second, or so, there was no result, and then a purplish light beamed from the outer orifice of the vent, the precursor of the singular substance that followed.
