What reading level is The 39 Steps book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I tossed a coin--heads right, tails left--and it fell heads, so Iturned to the north. In a little I came to the brow of the ridge whichwas the containing wall of the pass. I saw the highroad for maybe tenmiles, and far down it something that was moving, and that I took to bea motor-car. Beyond the ridge I looked on a rolling green moor, whichfell away into wooded glens.
Now my life on the veld has given me the eyes of a kite, and I can seethings for which most men need a telescope ... Away down... the slope, acouple of miles away, several men were advancing, like a row ofbeaters at a shoot ...
I dropped out of sight behind the sky-line. That way was shut to me, and I must try the bigger hills to the south beyond the highway. Thecar I had noticed was getting nearer, but it was still a long way offwith some very steep gradients before it. I ran hard, crouching lowexcept in the hollows, and as I ran I kept scanning the brow of thehill before me. Was it imagination, or did I see figures--one, two, perhaps more--moving in a glen beyond the stream?
