What reading level is Resources of the Southern Fields And Forests, Medical, Economical, And ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

An analysis of it is found to contain gum, gluten, albumen, an o(forous principle, extractive, caoutchouc^ a peculiar bitter crystallizable principle, some salts, etc. The decoction made with two ounces of the root of a whole plant to two pints of water, boiled to one-hal^ may be given in doses of a wineglassful; of the extract, the dose is ten grains to a half-drachm; the latter should be of a brown color, and entirely soluble in water.
The young shoots are edible, and produce in children a di
...uretic effect. The leaves and roots of this plant are bit- ter, and contain a bitter milky juice. I have ^iven the extract largely during five years attendance at the Marine Hospital, Charleston; and I ascertain that the extract certainly produces a laxative effect given in from ten to thirty grains — the same, or a much larger quantity, dissolved in water, proved diuretic. In this way I account for the different qualities ascribed to it. There was always a ten- dency to ascribe a power in the dandelion to act .upon the portal system.
