What reading level is The Physical Geography of New York State book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


In New York, Hall 2 described the lake beaches and the ridge road, which he recognized as a true beach. The Erie terraces were also mentioned; and the terraced deltas of the Cayuga and Seneca valleys were explained as the result of former water levels, though he was doubtful as to the exact conditions then existing. Hayes 3 ascribed the beaches to ocean action, and Niagara gorge to the work of high and powerful tides. Lyell, 4 who visited the terraces in both New York and Canada, in the latter
...country in com- pany with Roy, and in New York with Hall, noted their remarkable general levelness, and asked how the barriers supposed by Roy could have been removed without dis- turbing this levelness. To account for them he supposed that they were marine, and that the land had been elevated vertically above the sea. Some terraces were believed to be beaches, some bars; and this difference in origin, to- gether with variations in supply, and in original surface contour, j>lns a slight difference in amount of uplift, lie believed competent to account for the measure of irregu- larity noticed.
