What reading level is The Geological Observer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The icebergs which ground upon the Banks of Newfound- land can scarcely fail to produce much disturbance of the bottom, often adding to it great blocks and minor fragments of rocks, borne by them from more northern regions. F * Mr. Couthouy mentions an iceberg, -with apparently boulders upon it, as low down as latitude 36 10' N. , and longitude 39 W. The same author states that he had often met with icebergs between the parallels of 36 and 42 N. , in his voyages to and from America and Europe. ...American Journal of Science, vol. Xliii. , 1842.
f Mr. Couthouy (American Journal of Science, vol. Xliii. , 1842, p. 155) mentions having seen (in September, 1822) a large iceberg aground on the eastern edge of the ANTARCTIC ICE-BARRIER. 239 As is well known, glaciers reaching the sea are not confined to the northern hemisphere ;* they are also found in the Antarctic regions. Sir James Ross mentions a great glacier, at -ZEtna Islet, South Shet- land, as descending from a height of 1200 feet into the ocean, where it presented a vertical cliff of 100 feet.
