The Rebellion of the Beasts: Or The Ass is Dead! Long Live the Ass!!! is a satirical novel written by Leigh Hunt and published in 1825. The book tells the story of a group of animals who rebel against their human oppressors and establish a new society where all animals are equal. The main character is a donkey named Neddy who becomes the leader of the rebellion. The book is a commentary on the political and social issues of the time, including the French Revolution and the struggle for workers' rights. It is also a critique of the idea of monarchy and the belief in divine right. The novel is written in a humorous and satirical style, with a mix of poetry and prose. The Rebellion of the Beasts is considered a classic of English literature and a pioneering work of animal satire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
