Slaughterhouse: The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect, and Inhumane Treatment Inside the U.S. Meat Industry
By Gail A. Eisnitz
In Slaughterhouse, Gail Eisnitz looks at the radical changes over the last 25 years of the meat-packing industry including government deregulation, the horrific conditions for the animals, consolidations of businesses, and worker’s life inside the slaughterhouses and what really goes on “behind closed doors.”
Eisnitz writing shares inside stories from workers that have never spoken publicly about what’s really taking place behind the closed doors of America’s slaughterhouses.
Author Gail A. Eisnitz brings the story up to date since the book’s original publication in this new paperback edition. She describes the ongoing efforts by the Humane Farming Association (HFA) to improve conditions in the meatpacking industry, investigative journalism and reporting that have prompted some basic reforms.
If you have the courage to know the truth and really look at what happens in slaughterhouses, and not look away–this book will wake you up, shake you up, and change your life.
