Black Beauty by Anna Sewell, Collectible Clothbound Classic

These new compact hardbacks are cloth-bound, with matching end papers, embossed gold and colored blocking to enhance their beautiful, bespoke cover illustrations.

Black Beauty has never been out of print since its publication in 1877. Anna Sewell broke new literary ground with the horse giving an autobiographical account of his experiences as a thoroughbred in the Victorian era.

The gentle thoroughbred, Black Beauty, is raised with care and is treated well until a vicious groom injures him. The damaged horse is then sold to various masters at whose hands he experiences cruelty and neglect. Although Anna Sewell’s classic is set firmly in the Victorian period, its message is universal and timeless: animals will serve humans well if they are treated with consideration and kindness. There have been many film and television adaptations of the story, but it is only the novel that captures the authentic voice of the central character.
