What reading level is The Harnessing of Niagara book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The utilization of Niagara for indus- trial purposes imposes upon those un- dertaking it a responsibility far beyond that which is measured by the capital invested. Science is cosmopolitan; she recognizes no boundary of race or na- tion; and engineering science of the twentieth century, in passing judgment upon the methods and apparatus em- ployed, while not failing to take into consideration the difficulties and limita- tions imposed by the boundaries of our present knowledge, will allow no ex...cuse for failure to find out and use the best means known to our age.
It is, therefore, a source of profound gratification that, from the outstart, the policy of the company has been characterized by a breadth of view com- mensurate with the far-reaching import- ance of the enterprise. The directors have allowed no local or even national prejudice to bias their judgment. They early threw the lists wide open and in the original competition which they in- augurated, the international commission passed upon no less than twenty-two plans covering practically the whole known range of electric, hydraulic and pneumatic distribution of power, and originating from places as far East as the city of Buda-Pesth, and as far West as San Francisco.
