When the steamer Drake is shipwrecked off the Spanish coast, there are only two survivors. One is young Alec Ramsay. The other is the Black Stallion--wildest
of all creatures--who saves Alec's life. Stranded on a desert island, boy and stallion develop a deep and special bond. The Black is the horse Alec has always
dreamed of: beautiful, savage, and majestic. Alec is determined to tame him. But the job turns out to be more difficult and dangerous than he ever imagined...
Unbroken, untameable, The Black Stallion and his boy share a desert island, hardship, and a mutual love. Through this love they both become great racers. This beloved story first appeared in 1941 and is still greatly loved.
