140 p. ; 18 cm. by George Orwell ; preface by Russell Baker ; introduction by C.M. Woodhouse. 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. Thus the stage is set for one of most telling satiric fables ever penned - a -razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.
