Black Beauty tells his own story, from his life as a foal to the various owners and places he lived. Through the highs and lows, good owners and bad, Black Beauty describes life as a horse in England in the late nineteenth century. This was an era when horses were the main mode of transportation and were often mistreated. This classic story includes some harsh scenes of cruelty to animals, but Black Beauty has a happy ending.
