What reading level is My Schools And Schoolmasters book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Immediately beyond the granitic gneiss of the hill there is a lAibaqueous deposit of the Idas formation, never yet explored by geologist, because never yet laid bare by the ebb ; though every heavier storm from the sea tells of its existence, by tossing B^ore fragments of its dark bituminous shale. I soon ascer- tained that the shale is so largely charged with inflammable matter as to bum with a strong flame, as if steeped in tar or r-il, and that I could repeat with it the common experiment of
... Ijroducing gas by means of a tobacco-pipe luted with clay. And, having read in Shakspere of a fuel termed " sea-coal," and unaware at the time that the poet merely meant coal brought to London by sea, I inferred that the inflammable shale cast up from the depths of the Firth by the waves could not be other than the veritable "sea-coal" which figured in the reminiscences of Bame Quickly ; and so, assisted by Finlay, who shared in the interest which I felt in the substance, as at once classical liud an original discovery, I used to collect it in large quantities liud convert it into smoky and troubled fires, that ever filled our cavern with a horrible stench, and scented all the shore.
