What reading level is The Discovery of Oxygen volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But if this opinion had any foundation, this air should not only be corrosive, but should also produce nitre anew with alkalies. This, however, does not occur. Never- theless, this objection would possess considerable weight were I not able to prove that several substances produce the same air as the acid of nitre does during distillation. But proof of this is not wanting. I have proved in a treatise on manganese, which is to be found in the Transactions of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences... for the year 1774, that this mineral is not soluble in any acid unless an inflammable substance be added, which communicates its phlogiston to the manganese, and by this means effects an entrance of the latter into the acids. I have shown in the same place that vitriolic acid, nevertheless, during a strong distilla- tion with powdered manganese, unites with it and makes it soluble in water; and if this manganese is separated again from the vitriolic acid by means of precipitating agents, there are found in it the most distinct traces of the inflammable substance.
