What reading level is Science a Witness for the Bible book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The authority for ten successive beds of cypress forest, grown over one another, is vague and worthless. The idea of alternate elevations and depressions of such sunken forests, is an enormous assumption, involving the supposi- tion of prodigious volcanic forces. These, if real, leave no room for regular guess-work, immensely fitful as they are.
That such buried trees actually grew where they are found imbedded, is also an assumption, by no means to be admitted.
"When timber, " says Lyell, "is ...drifted down by a river, it is often arrested by lakes ; and, becoming water-logged, it may sink and become imbedded in the lacustrine strata, ... In the course of the Mackenzie River we have an ex- ample of the vast accumulations of vegetable matter now in progress. ... As the trees retain their roots, which are often loaded with earth and stones, they readily sink, and, accumulating in the eddies, form shoals, which ultimately augment into islands. . . . Yast quantities of drift timber are buried under the sand at the mouth of the river, and it has formed a barrier of islands and shoals.
