Never before has this favorite been so handsomely, and
appropriately, illustrated. Keeping (d. 1988), a master draftsman
who illustrated 300 books, including all of Dickens, has provided a
bountiful number of drawings (some subtly touched with color),
combining piercing caricature, compassion, and a sure eye for the
horses' beauty, movement, and (at the worst of times) plight. A
masterpiece of illustration, capturing the book's drama and period
while rising nobly above its sentimentality. (Kirkus Reviews)
Anna Sewell's Black Beauty was an immediate success on its
publication in 1877, and has gone on to sell an estimated 50
million copies. Black Beauty is a horse with a fine black coat, a
white foot and a silver star on his forehead. Seen through his
eyes, the story tells of his idyllic upbringing and the hardship
and cruelty he suffers subsequently, before finding security and
happiness in a new home. Black Beauty is one of the most popular
children's books ever written.
