What reading level is The Back of Beyond book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet despite this unexpected and insulting defeat, Hitler was still set on beating the British into submission. The Luftwaffe’s heavy bombers were sent in – the Dorniers, the Focke-Wulfs, and thus began the Blitzkrieg.
Civilians now found themselves in the front line. Not only the Home Guard, air-raid wardens, ambulance drivers, firemen, medical staff, munitions workers, but those merely going about their daily business. This was when the true meaning of war was brought home to the man (and woman...) in the street. Being the capital, London took the brunt of the raids at first, night after night of bombs screaming down, night after night spent in the large shelters built by the councils, or in Anderson shelters provided for back gardens, or Morrison shelters intended for those confined to the house but who were often too afraid to make use of them in case they were trapped inside like mice.
There were some, of course, who relied instead on their own makeshift boltholes – under the stairs, in a narrow lobby, in the cellar, even just under a table – and those who made a point of ‘not giving in to the murdering bastards’, who did nothing when the howling of the alert sirens rent the air.
