A special student edition of Orwell's timeless classic, with an introduction and study notes.

When the oppressed animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master, Mr. Jones, and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually, a cunning and harsh elite among them begins to take control, and the animals find themselves hopelessly trapped as one form of tyranny is replaced by another.

It features wide margins for notes and includes an introduction and notes by Orwell expert Ronald Carter, character sketches, a summary, a timeline, linguistic notes, and a selection of discussion questions and topics for analysis.
