The Black Beauty Ranch in east Texas is a childhood dream fulfilled for author, critic, editor, and anticruelty activist Amory, who founded the Fund for Animals. At this wildlife refuge, abused animals live out the remainder of their lives in dignity. Amory tells the heartwrenching stories of individual residents in the larger context of humanity s cruelty to animals in general. Residents include burros rescued by helicopter from the Grand Canyon despite U.S. Park Service efforts to thwart the attempt. There is Nim, the chimpanzee, raised by a human family, who could communicate in sign language but was sent to a lab to be a subject in a hepatitis experiment. Three-legged cats, navy goats, a diving horse, circus elephants, and bison?all live peacefully on the ranch. A necessary purchase for all libraries serving patrons concerned with environmental and animal rights issues.
