Animal Farm Study Guide CD-ROM

In Animal Farm, mistreated animals take over their farm to create a paradise of justice and equality . . . but vulnerability, power, and corruption can arise in even the most well-intentioned society. A razor-edged adult fairy tale that records the transition from revolt to tyranny to a totalitarian society with faults of its own.
