Before the Steven Spielberg film, before the National Theatre production, there was the classic children?s novel?In the deadly chaos of the First World War, one horse witnesses the reality of battle from both sides of the trenches. Bombarded by artillery, with bullets knocking riders from his back, Joey tells a powerful story of the truest friendships surviving in terrible times. One horse has the seen the best and the worst of humanity. The power of war and the beauty of peace. This is his story.War Horse was adapted by Steven Spielberg as a major motion picture with Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, and Benedict Cumberbatch. The National Theatre production opened in 2007 and has enjoyed successful runs in the West End and on Broadway.A great way of introducing young readers to the realities of WWI.

London, Kaye & Ward, 1982. . First edition, first impression; 8vo; original pictorial boards by Victor Ambrus without dust-jacket as issued, minor bumping to spine ends but overall a superior, bright example, free of the sunning that plagues some copies. The scarce first edition of the book that was to serve as an inspiration for both an award-winning stage-play (2007) and an acclaimed film adaptation (2011) by Steven Spielberg. The story recounts the experiences of Joey, a horse purchased by the Army for service in First World War France and the attempts of young Albert, his previous owner, to bring him safely home. Morpurgo wrote a sequel in 1997 called Farm Boy, which was also successfully dramatised.Much like the first Harry Potter book, this edition was not issued with a dust-jacket and many copies seem to have gone into the public or school library system, so a rare find in such condition., London, Kaye & Ward, 1982., 0<
