What reading level is The Practice of Copper Smelting book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The saving thus effected in coke, as well as in ease and rapidity of smelting, would far more ...than offset the cost of the limestone.
Limestone consists of CaCO 3 plus various foreign substances both bases and acids. As we are now looking for bases with which to reduce the silica content of our ore-mixture, we cannot tell how much limestone we need to use for the purpose until we know what proportion of bases our particular limestone con- tains.
Careful determinations establish that the analysis of the average limestone at our disposition is: SiO 2 3. 2 per cent FeO 3. 9 " " CaO 39. 4 " " MgO 9.
