What reading level is The Honey Bee a Manual of Instruction in Apiculture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is particu- larly desirable, in order to straighten the combs of transferred colonies and get them in good working trim, that they be run for extracted honey during the first year or two 5 moreover, a good yield of extracted honey is more likely to be obtained from recently transferred colonies than comb honey, especially if the manipulators are beginners in the work.
When the extracting is done after the close of the gathering period, the greatest care should be taken not to start robbing.
...The surplus combs should be returned to the hives just before nightfall, and not even a taste of sweets of any kind should be left exposed. The object in returning the combs is to have them cleaned up, and also to have them under the protection of the bees until cool weather puts a stop to the destructive work of wax-moth larvae. When sharp frosts occur, the surplus combs may be removed from the hives and placed in a dry, cold room. An open loft (if not infested with mice or if the combs are pro- tected from the latter) is a good place, and it is much better to place the combs so they do not touch each other.
