What reading level is Thomas Alva Edison book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On reaching Port Huron he hurried across the platform and glanced fearfully through the office window, half-expecting to find Edison unconscious on the floor. Instead, a peaceful scene met his eyes. The telegraph operator, entirely uncon- scious of scrutiny, was lying across two chairs with a pillow and a coverlet and all the evidences of a regular sleeping arrangement. The train dispatcher was about to burst into the room when it occurred to him to wait and see what new scheme the boy had inve...nted for being wakened at the half- hour interval.
But when the hands of the clock pointed to the required hour, Edison continued to sleep as peace- fully as before and the alarm clock made no sound. Puzzled beyond words, the dispatcher watched for a moment or two longer; then, in a way that seemed Uke magic, a lever operated by a small instrument on the table opened the circuit, the 56 THOMAS ALVA EDISON instrument "got busy" and sent the required *'dot, dash'' over the wire. Another lever closed the circuit, and lo and behold !
