Mr. Jones is a character in the book Animal Farm. He is the brutal (and often drunk) owner of Manor Farm.[1]
Jones is kicked out of his farm when the animals start their rebellion.[1] Later he returns with several others, and tries to get his farm back. There is a battle, but the animals win.[2]
Most people think Jones represents Russia's ruling class prior to the Russian Revolution.[3] Some people think that he represents the bourgeoisie[4] but the most common idea is that he represents Tsar Nicholas II.[5][6][7][8][9][6]
