What reading level is Silvicultural Prospects of the Island of Cuba book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is in fact often disappointing. It is more irregular in form and the light is a daz/ling reflected kind quite unlike the mild transmitted light of northern woods. This is, however, not always so. There is a sharper struggle for light and space, and weeds are more vigorous and pestiferous. There is enormous vegetative activity. There is a lack of periodicity of leaf-fall and a lack of protective adaptations against cold. Owing to the lack of proper means of communication in Cuba there is a la...ck of wood in certain districts especially in the tobacco and sugar regions. It is not my intention in this connection to more than mention the possibilities in the line of rubber, gums, dyes, medicines, choco- late, precious woods, spices and other forest products. It is my intention simply to emphasize the demand for fuel wood, charcoal, tobacco poles, and fence ma- terials, and to express the opinion that they may be planted with profit in Cuba. Wood is used to a certain extent by the locomotives and industrial establishments in Cuba, but charcoal, the fuel par excel- lence for tropical countries, is most in de- mand for house use.
