L'histoire, racontée à la première personne, est l'autobiographie d'un cheval nommé Prince Noir qui commence sa vie poulain dans une ferme anglaise. Le roman raconte les mésaventures de ce cheval, vendu par ses premiers propriétaires, jusqu'à devenir cheval de fiacre dans les rues de Londres. Tout au long de l'histoire, Prince Noir est confronté à la cruauté ou la sympathie des hommes, et continue à faire le travail qu'on lui demande avec courage. Chaque chapitre du roman raconte un incident de la vie de Prince Noir et contient une leçon ou une morale en rapport avec le traitement des chevaux à l'époque. Le roman d'Anna Sewell a d'ailleurs contribué à l'amélioration du sort des chevaux londoniens.
