What reading level is My Sporting Holidays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We went up from the same station, Hoolaker, this time to a mountain saeter, which Jordhai then considered to be better situated for our purpose, and for a month I enjoyed an open-air fjeld life.
It was in the month of August, and we had the advantage of good trout-fishing on off-days. The mountain lakes on the Dovre Fjeld hold very good trout, but unfortunately the natives, even in those days, used to fish these lakes heavily with that per- nicious poaching instrument, the otter.
The story is t
...hat some guileless Englishman, in days gone by, introduced the otter to the notice of his Norwegian guide. It was an unhappy inspiration. The otter has since come widely into use among a people who, naturally enough, fish mainly for the pot, and in the lakes where it has thus been used rod fishing has been greatly injured in consequence.
