What reading level is The Pedals of the Piano-Forte And Their Relation to Piano-Forte Playing And the Teaching of Composition And Acoustics : Four Lectures Delivered At the Conservatory of Music, in Vienna book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The second pedal to the left of the damper pedal, commonly known as the soft pedal ( Versehiebung), remains yet to be considered. In grand pianos its effect is to cause a slight movement of the keyboard to the right, in consequence of which the hammer strikes one string, or sometimes two, instead of three, thus, with the same strength of touch, producing a softer tone. It is to be used when the player wishes a softer tone than his Angers alone are able to produce. The character of the tone is a...lso somewhat altered, since the string which is not struck, being of the same pitch as the others, vibrates slightly in sympathy, lending the tone something of an harmonic character. Stavenhagen, the virtuoso, avails himself frequently of this means of expression, and by it produces charming effects in compositions of an elegiac character, e.g., the Prelude in D flat major by Chopin. Employed too frequently the effect is cloying.
The use of this pedal is generally indicated by una corda ( one string ) ; sometimes by due corda (two strings); its discontinuance by tre corde (three strings).
