ANNA SEWELL WROTE only one book. While sick in bed, she
penned the story that would become one of the most loved
ever written--an autobiography of a gallant black horse named
Black Beauty.
Anna was born on March 20, 182o, in Great Yarmouth in the
east of England. Raised as a Quaker, she learned compassion for
animals at an early age. Anna s mother, Mary Wright Sewell, was a
successful children s writer, and Anna learned the craft of writing
by editing her mother s work.
Anna suffered a bone disease, and a fall at age fourteen left her
crippled. She walked with a crutch, but could ride and drive well,
often controlling horses by her voice alone. When the family could
afford to keep a horse, Anna would drive her father, a bank man-
ager, to work every day.
Her health, never strong after her injury, failed, and for the last
ten years of her life Sewell was bedridden.When faced with a poor
prognosis of survival, she began writing a story that she hoped
would change the way people treated their horses. The story
became Black Beauty, The Autobiography of a Horse, published in ~877, a
groundbreaking novel told from the point of view of a horse.
Anna Sewell died before she could see the phenomenal success
of her book. Black Beauty sold thirty million copies in the next one
hundred years (a fiction record), was the basis for multiple motion
pictures, and inspired a popular series of children s books about
horses through history. Sewell probably would have valued the
book s success at reform more highly, however. Brick Beauty made
