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


The dangers and mishaps which now assailed them in succession wereenough to have damped the ardour of the most resolute pioneer; but thereare some natures which cannot be quelled, whose motto in allcircumstances seem to be "Victory or death!" Of such a spirit wasAlexander Mackenzie, although some of his men would fain have turnedback. Indeed, the overcoming of their objection to proceed sometimescost him more trouble than overcoming the difficulties of thenavigation.
On reaching the other side
...of the river, they towed the canoe along anisland, and advanced well enough till they reached the extremity of it, when the line had to be exchanged for the paddles. In attempting toclear the point of the island, they were driven with great violence on astony shore, and the frail canoe received considerable injury. To landand unload was the work of a few minutes; but it took a long time torepair the damage, by fitting in new pieces of bark and re-gumming theexposed seams. Part of the cargo, also, had to be opened and dried.
