"Very readable, even for the unconvinced. More a look at our nation's developing awareness of the needs and (should-be) rights of animals that are raised for food than just a history of Farm Sanctuary.
Baur has a graduate degree in agricultural economics from Cornell and decades of experience working to create legislation to protect animals. He writes with intelligence and authority, and with no hysteria.
Food animals are raised under the grossest, most horrible conditions. If you eat meat that you don't raise yourself, it's worth learning about this, even if you are motivated only by interest in your own health. It can't be good for us to put all of that misery and pain into our bodies."
"Wow! This book is an eye opener to farm factory animals and practices. Whether you eat meat or are a vegan, i think everyone should read or browse through this book. It gives true accounts of animals lives who are raised for meat and dairy consumption."
"Absolutely heartwrenching and inspiring. Author Gene Baur works tirelessly to save downed, injured, and sick animals from factory farms and to advance ethical treatment of animals in the animal industry through legislative processes. Not for the faint of heart."
