From Farm Sanctuary TODAY:

This week we have witnessed a momentous victory for farm animals in the passage of Prop 2 in California, and YOU had everything to do with it!  More than 6.2 million people in the state voted YES on Prop 2. These people believed that farm animals deserve consideration and they voted their conscience.  If it weren’t for your support, Farm Sanctuary would not have been able to spread the word about the ongoing cruelties that farm animals suffer at the hands of an industry that has resisted any meaningful change for animals. This is a victory not only for animals, but it’s a victory for YOU. Your ongoing support has made all the difference for farm animals.

I’m writing you today to keep that momentum going! Many of you know that I wrote a book that was released earlier this year, entitled Farm Sanctuary: Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food. I wrote this book to be used as a tool for animal advocates, as it’s a great way to educate people about farm animal issues. I’ve spent a good portion of this year traveling to cities throughout the U.S. talking with people about how Farm Sanctuary came to be and why we work tirelessly on behalf of the animals we know and love.

I’m happy to report that this week, Farm Sanctuary was released in paperback and can be ordered online or found at a bookstore near you.

And, TODAY ONLY, you can also download Farm Sanctuary for free!  Please celebrate the paperback release with me by downloading the eBook at http://www.ebookstore.sony.com/. You can read the book without a Sony Reader; just download the reader software to your computer and you can read it there. More downloads mean more attention to farm animal issues!

Thank you for all you do for the animals and please join me as we keep this momentum going and educate millions more about the plight of farm animals!

Yours in compassion, 

Gene Baur, President and Co-Founder
Farm Sanctuary
