What reading level is Our Home Lands a Regional Study of the Geography of the British Isles book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is never much frost and snow, nor any extremely hot weather. This is because the winds, crossing the ocean, in summer are cool, and in winter are never very cold.
It is owing to the mildness of the climate that we find the strawberry tree growing in south- western Ireland, around Killarney. This is an evergreen tree, which dreads frost, and is com- mon in the warm lands of southern Europe, such as Italy. Yet visitors to the lovely lakes of Killarney see this tree, with its *' blushing fru...it, *' growing to a height of thirty feet.
Irish Bogs. The level surface, the heavy rainfall, and the clouded sky which prevents the sun from drying the surface, have combined to give Ireland its dreary peat bogs. The word '* bog " is reaUy an Irish word, and, therefore, we may well say that Ireland is the home of bogs. These are not, like IRISH BOGS. 191 the English fen-lands, at sea level, but are in the middle of the country or among the mountains.
Much of the land in the centre of Ireland is composed of clay, through which water cannot pass.
