BLACK BEAUTY
by Sewell, Anna
- Used
- first
London: Jarrold and Sons, 1877. Near fine.. First edition of the novel that unified a movement, the most widespread tool wielded by humane societies to abolish practices of cruel treatment of horses, especially the use of the bearing-rein. Now considered one of the most famous English children's books of the Victorian era, BLACK BEAUTY only sold about 100 copies during the holiday season when it was first published. Its momentum slowly gathered with good reviews, but the book's major turning point occurred in the US. Following the life of a horse, from the horse's perspective, BLACK BEAUTY proved a powerful vehicle to spotlight examples of cruelty to animals, and became a unifying symbol among animal rights activists seeking more humane treatment of horses. In a brilliant move, the founder of the American Humane Education Society, George T. Angell, attracted corporate donations to finance printing thousands of copies to give away to stablemen and horse drivers. The book's special capability to instill empathy in its readers had a lasting impact: BLACK BEAUTY is now credited as the most influential force in the abolition of the painful bearing-rein, as well as diminishing the traffic in decrepit horses. A lovely copy in the original cloth pictorial binding. 6.5'' x 4.25''. Original green pictorial cloth gilt with horse's head in circular vignette, facing left. Brown coated endpapers. Publisher's ads at rear. Carter's variant "C": the most common and likely the standard variant for the trade edition. viii, 9-247, [1], [8] pages. Nearly invisible contemporary ink inscription on front free endpaper; young girl's pencil inscription, dated 1968, on verso of title page. Hinges expertly reinforced, a bit of foxing here and there. Slight lean; cloth with light rubbing around extremities, but overall bright and beautiful.
