Description
It is good people who make good places.
― Anna Sewell, Black Beauty
Black Beauty: His Grooms and Companions, the Autobiography of a Horse or Black Beauty- a novel by Anna Sewell, is an autobiographical memoir narrated by the titular horse named Black Beauty
The story begins in his carefree days as a foal. He was raised by his mother, Duchess, with the help of the kind Farmer Grey.
After an idyllic childhood with Farmer Grey, Beauty is sent to Squire Gordon, where he spends the happiest years of his life. Unfortunately, Squire Gordon's family moves and he had to sell his horses. Mishaps after mishaps happen and Beauty turns from a fashionable carriage horse to a horse-for-hire.
Throughout his life, Beauty learns that humans can be either a horse's greatest ally or their worst enemy.
Can Beauty still experience the beauty of life?
