What reading level is Ocean Steamships a Popular Account of Their Construction Development Manageme book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her speed on service was about eight and a half knots, so that she did the passage in 15 days.
Ten years later the now renowned Inman Line commenced with an iron screw steamer named the City of Glasgow, of 1, 600 tons burden, and 350 nominal horse-power, a new departure in both ship and propeller.
It was not until 1855 that the Cunard Company built an iron steamer, and they continued to employ paddle boats until 1862, when the celebrated steamship Scotia was completed.
It is interesting to note..., in passing, that the average length of voyage in the Cunard Line, in 1856, from Liverpool to New York was 12. 676 days, and from New York to Liverpool 11. 036 days.
Thirteen years after the Scotia was built the "White Star Com- pany placed on the station two vessels that were very great advances on anything then existing ; they were marvels of the ship -builder's and marine engineer's skill, and even to-day hold their own in many respects with the most modern ships. That these should compete successfully, and eventually drive off the line such a ship as the Scotia is easily seen by reference to contrasted particulars in the table on page 78.
