What reading level is The Art of Angling As Practised in Scotland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE observations introduced into our initiatory chap- ters on Scottish rivers and lochs, with regard to the soils best calculated for the breeding of good trout, will apply, not without reason, to our present remarks. In these we have shown, that a constant and plentiful provision is essential to the growth and increase of fish, and that certain dispositions of channel, or bottom, will furnish, more readily than others, the various kinds of sustenance required. Now, in treating of the construc-... tion of artificial ponds, whether intended for the rais- ing or fattening of fish, we hold it to be of primary consequence, that some means be taken to secure a steady supply of food, otherwise the object of the ex- perimentalist is defeated at its very outset.
To do this successfully must depend very much upon the natural conveniences of soil and situation. No one can rationally expect to find worms and insects under a dry, poor earth, or flies in any plenty apart from shrubs and trees. Undoubtedly those places which are, to a certain extent, fertile, and in the neighbour- hood of wood, also mosses and moor ground, arising as they do from vegetable decay, are to be preferred be- fore arid and unproductive lands for this purpose.
