Black Beauty

"Black Beauty" is Anna Sewell's classic tale of a horse living in 19th century England. The novel follows the story of a young colt through its life and the experiences it has as it passes from master to master. Black Beauty's experiences are one of both cruelty and kindness. "Black Beauty" masterfully explores the relation between men and animals and strives to impress upon the reader that all animals should be treated with kindness and compassion.
