What reading level is The Home Naturalist With Practical Instructions for Collecting Arranging And book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Dried plants are liable to the growth of fungi and to the attacks of many insects. If the plants are kept in a dry place, however, the growth of mould will be prevented, as it never appears unless there is damp to encourage its formation. The plants should be occasion- ally examined, and insect depredators destroyed, or the specimens may be carefully brushed over with a solution of corrosive sublimate dissolved in spirits of wine, in the proportion of two drachms to a pint. The bottle should be... labelled poison, to prevent accidents.
A considerable knowledge of botany may be gained by the examination of the natural orders of our native plants, and this knowledge may be made the basis of a still more extensive study. Indeed, the pursuit of knowledge in this direction appears to be indefinite. Fossil plants which grew at an epoch in the earth's history so remote that they have now no living representatives, though strangely similar, and yet so different, are undoubtedly the ancestors from which the plants of to-day are lineally descended.
