What reading level is Physical Features of the Des Plaines Valley No. 11 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The more rapid growth of the "pirate" is usually attributed to advantage from a shorter, steeper course, or of a weaker rock structure to encounter, or of a larger volume (perhaps because of heavier rainfall.) In the present case, it might seem that the upper part of an ancestral "Flat creek," which followed the lowland southward past FuUersburg, was captured by the headward growth of a transverse stream which had begun its growth on the east slope of the morjaine, (i. e., the present lower cou...rse of Salt creek). The upper part of this ancient Flag creek, above FuUersburg, would thus become a part of Salt Creek, and would be diverted into the Des Plaines at Riverside, while the lower part of it would be left in a beheaded con- dition, the Flag creek of today. No positive evidence, however, of river capture at this place has been found; nor does there seem to have been any reason for piracy. Salt creek, below FuUersburg, seems to have had no advantage over Flag creek, either as to the length of its course or as to the structure it encountered.
