What reading level is The Origin of the Silver Eel: With Remarks On Bait & Fly Fishing book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I think they spawn in November. Their young visit us in May.
I went to Perth to examine them, and along the banks of the Tay they came in vast numbers streaming along close by the edges, evidently to keep themselves beyond the reach of the trout and the salmon. I threw two or three on the land and could discover no resemblance between them and the fresh- water eel. They were not the same species.
I think our earlier naturalists have mistaken them for the fresh-water eel, supposing our rivers an...d lakes to be stocked from the sea, and believed they found their way back again.

CHAPTER IV.
I MAY here mention there is another beetle smaller than the one I denominate the eel-beetle. It is half an inch long, and is a well-shapedy active creature ; its colour rather darker than that of Port wine. It breeds in the ordinary way of beetles, by eggs, in damp places, and finishes its career thereafter by giving birth to two wire-like worms, one-thirty-second of an inch thick, and four inches long, which may be seen creeping about in damp places and comers of gardens frequented by these beetles.
