The novel, Black Beauty, by Anna Sewell, tells the story of a horse's life from birth to death. The horse, which is black, is named Black Beauty and is owned by different people throughout his life. The novel highlights the harsh realities of working-class life in England during the 1800s. It also promotes the virtues of kindness, compassion, and self-respect.
An autobiographical memoir told by the titular horse named Black Beauty. Beginning with his carefree days as a colt on an English farm with his mother, to his difficult life pulling cabs in London, to his happy retirement in the country. Along the way, he meets with many hardships and recounts many tales of cruelty and kindness. Each short chapter recounts an incident in Black Beauty's life containing a lesson or moral typically related to the kindness, sympathy, and understanding treatment of horses, with Sewell's detailed observations and extensive descriptions of horse behaviour.
