Animal Farm: A Fairy Story Prebound - 1999
by George Orwell; Text by (Art/Photo Books) C. M. Woodhouse
In this controversial classic fairy tale, a farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality, setting the stage for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned. Illustrations and Orwell's proposed but unpublished preface are included in this anniversary edition. Reissue.
Summary
First line
MR JONES, of the Manor farm, had locked the hen-houses for the night, but was too drunk to remember to shut the pop-holes.
First Edition Identification
Secker and Warburg first published Animal Farm in London in 1945. With a print run of just 4,000 copies, the first edition is bound in green cloth and states “First Published May 1945” on the copyright page. The original green and grey dust jacket is famously fragile as it was cheaply produced to meet Wartime Economy Standards.
