Black Beauty is an 1877 novel by English author Anna Sewell. It was composed in the last years of her life, during which she remained in her house as an invalid.

As he passes from owner to owner he faces cruelty and hardship, as well as compassion and kindness. Through it all–all his struggles to survive–Black Beauty refuses to let his spirit be broken. Will he ever find the happiness and peace he craves?
