What reading level is The Arts & Crafts of Ancient Egypt No. 5350 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Samples were taken out by pincers to test the colour at differ- ent stages. The whole mass was fairly fused, and then left to get cold in the earthen pan, which was about four or five inches across, and held half an inch to an inch deep of the glass. When cold the pan was chipped away, the frothy top of the glass was chipped off, and lumps of pure glass were obtained free from sediment and scum. A lump of glass thus purified was heated to a pasty state, and patted into a cylindrical form, then ...rolled under a bar of metal, which was run diagonally across it, until it was re- duced to a rod about the size of a lead pencil, or rather less. Such a rod was then heated, and drawn out into " cane " about ^ inch thick. Every vase was built up from such cane.
For making a vase a copper mandril was taken, slightly tapering, of the size of the interior of the neck. Upon the end of this was built a body of soft siliceous paste, tied up in rag, and baked upon it, of the size of the interior of the intended vase.
