What reading level is A Russian Schoolboy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He preferred to give us practice in the writing of short compositions upon subjects which he set himself. As to other subjects in general history, Russian history, and geography, which we did with Yakovnin, I did well, but was not one of the best. In languages generally, the standard attained was not high, and this was certainly due to bad teaching. In arith- metic, I was weak even in the Junior Class ; and in the Middle Form it became clear that I was quite unable to learn mathematics ; and th...is reputation I kept at the University as well as at school. In writing, drawing, and dancing, I got on well enough. In my lessons with the priest I did well but not very well. While in this form I ceased to use a slate, which was then, and still is to some extent, a pet aversion with me : the squeaking of a slate pencil upon a slate grates on my nerves now as it used to do then.
At last we heard that Zapolsky had brought his bride back to Kazan and was staying at his mother-in-law's house. He came next day to see his pupils and was exceedingly cordial to us.
