Recursive file search and replace

Talkupation: prosumer is on a distinguished road
I'm trying to do a recursive replace for thousands of files in multiple sub-directories.

A code I found is:

bash> find . -name '*.html' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/2005 - All Rights Reserved/2006 - All Rights Reserved/g'

However, I get error:
xargs: unmatched single quote

What's wrong? Any perl expert can help?

Thanks
