Perhaps the most celebrated animal story of the century, Black Beauty is the suspenseful and deeply moving account of a horse's experiences at the hands of many owers---some, sentitive riders who treated himgently; others, cruel driver who thoughtlessly inflicted lasting damage.
Written as the animal's autobiography and as an appeal for the humane treatment horses, Anna Sewell's beloved classic reveals as much about human conduct and the social ills of the time as it does about the treatment of animals. Scenes from the lives of both the landed gentry and the impoverished working class offer a subtle but well-rounded perspective of social conditions in England during the late 19th century
Animal lovers of all ages will cherish this memorable story, now available in this unabridged, modestly priced edition.
