Rebelión en la granja, de George Orwell, fue editado por primera vez por Secker & Warburg en agosto de 1945, después de haber sido rechazado el original por cuatro editores el año anterior. En 1971 fue descubierto el manuscrito de un prólogo escrito para este libro y que hasta entonces había permanecido completamente ignorado. Dicho prólogo fue adquirido por el Archivo Orwell de la Universidad de Londres y se publicó posteriormente.
