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

The red rock cod leaves hisstony hollows and swims over the sandy places, looking for soft crabs, or for his favourite food, the luscious crass. Last of all comes thebeautiful sea-trout, skirmishing forward with short rushes, andsometimes making a swirl near the surface of the water. The fishermenwait until they think the trout have had time to reach the inner rocks, and then softly paddle the coble away from the shore. The net isdexterously shot, and a good man can manage to do this without ma...king asplash. The long curtain is about four feet deep, and lead sinkers makeit hang true. Not a word is spoken until the great bladder which marksthe end of the net falls into the sea. Then the boat is taken toward theshore, and the fishermen rest quiet for awhile, until it is time tobegin splashing. The big pole is dashed into the water in order tofrighten the trout towards the net, and very great judgment is requiredin the rower, for if he happens to take the wrong track he may easilyput the fish in the way of escape.
