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

It was found, dealing with gases at very different temperatures, that the curves obtained upon the revolving cylinder showed a point of discontinuity. At the very highest temperatures the curves were somewhat different from what they were at low temperatures, and 98 the assumption they made was that at the high temperatures dissociation had set in, whereas at the lower temperatures there was no dissociation ; therefore the law of cooling would be different in the two cases. If, however, that in...terpreta- tion of the experiments was accepted, it would be found that the temperatures at which dissociation took place to any con- siderable extent were higher than those he had mentioned. Thus the authors stated that carbonic acid did not dissociate ap- preciably below 1, 800 Centigrade, and that steam-gas did not dissociate appre- ciably below 2, 000. Here, then, there were temperatures considerably above those obtained in the gas engine ; if, therefore, the results in question were to be accepted, dissociation could not play a very important part in the matter.
