Description

First published in 1877, Black Beauty is a timeless account of life as a horse, written by its owner Anna Sewell. Despite her own mortality, Sewell was determined to share her passionate indignation at the insensitive treatment of horses and to promote kindness, sympathy, and understanding towards these animals.

Illustrations by Lucy Kemp-Welch were added to subsequent editions, including this 1993 edition from Everyman's Library Children's Classics. This edition features a hardcover binding and 288 pages, providing a comprehensive reading experience for those interested in the life of horses and the people who care for them.

Originally intended as an autobiography, Black Beauty has become a beloved children's classic, cherished by readers for generations.
