Chapter 12: A Stormy Day begins with a brisk autumn morning as Black Beauty is harnessed for a journey with his master and John, the coachman.

Chapter 2 The Hunt
Chapter 2 The Hunt begins with the calm of early spring disrupted by the sharp cries of hounds drifting through the morning mist. The colts grazing in the field, myself among them, lifted our heads as instinct and curiosity drew us to the edge of the meadow. Our elders, including my mother and the old gelding in the next field, approached quietly, signaling the significance of the moment. From the hill, we watched as a flurry of motion and color broke through the trees—men in bright coats urging their…-
