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

But satire in shilling pamphlets was not likely to make his fortune; and, in 1748, he published, anonymously, the Advc7itnres of Boderick liandom, a novel to some extent autobiographical, the merit of which was so evident as to warrant its being at once attributed to Fielding. It contains two capital conceptions — the hero's devoted henchman. Strap, and the sea-lieutenant, Tom Bowling, a nautical portrait in a style which, although frequently attempted since, was then comparatively new to ficti...on. But the difference between the manner of Smollett and the metliod of the author of Tom Jones is easily discernible. In the case of the latter, the plot is conducted to its designed denoueynent by a gradual march of skilfuHy-inrolved incidents ; — in that of the former it consists of a succession of brilliant but loosely attached scenes, terminated arbitrarily, after a certain time, by the marriage of the leading personages. ' His (Smollett's) notion of a story was rather that of the traveller than the historian ; his chief characters are kept on the move through a succession of places, each full of things to be seen and of odd physiognomies to be quizzed.
