Book: Striking at the Roots
By Mark Hawthorne; introduction by Bruce Friedrich. Striking at the Roots brings together the most effective tactics for speaking out for animals and gives voice to activists from around the globe, who explain why their chosen models of activism have been successful - and how others can get involved. Comprehensively covers many activism models with chapters on leafleting, letter and article writing, media, tabling, protests and demonstrations, lobbying, and corporate campaigning, as well as information on animal law and activists' legal rights. Also contains information and stories about well-known and not-so well-known animal rights groups and sanctuaries. This extremely well-written and comprehensive book is a must-read for both the veteran activist and the person who wants to get involved but is not quite sure how to get started. One of the best guides to animal advocacy that has ever been written! 282 pages.
