What reading level is The Geonomic Aspects of the Illinois Waterway book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Formerly much of this coal was shipped to markets outside the state, ^- but the present reduced production is consumed in the surrounding territory, none of it moving more than 150 miles to the west.^^ The railroads constitute the chief purchaser. Other important coal consuming centers in the State are Elgin, Rockford, Aurora, and Kankakee, which, however, are too far from the waterway to profit from its use.
In competition with eastern coal the Illinois product is at a disadvantage. It has a c...omparatively high moisture content, which reduces the heat value per unit of weight and causes the coal to break more readily after mining. In storage it deteriorates and Is subject to spontaneous combustion.^* Considerable breakage with rehandling formerly retarded its entrance into distant markets, except by all rail routes and at the season of maximum demand.^^ Approximately one-half of the coal mined in Illinois is consumed within the State.
For special uses coal of a certain quality is absolutely neces- sary.
