Celia Brayfield: Writing Black Beauty

My guest on this week's Book Club podcast is the journalist and author Celia Brayfield whose new book 'Writing Black Beauty: Anna Sewell and the story of animal rights', takes us back to the 19th century. Celia describes how Anna Sewell's writing of the Black Beauty book ultimately led to the kinder treatment of horses, and we both recall fondly the popular TV adaptation with its soaringly emotive theme tune.
