Lantern Books will publish Growl: Life Lessons, Hard Truths, and Bold Strategies from an Animal Advocate in September.

Part memoir and part manifesto, I’ve written the book I wish I could’ve read when I went vegan and became involved with animal rights in the 1970s. 

I explore four key values in animal rights: compassion, truth, nonviolence, and justice.

Growl‘s fabulous cover is designed by Lawrence & Beavan.

Not all souls sing; some growl—for justice, for truth, for nonviolence. In this compelling book, Kim Stallwood offers frontline reflections with feet-on-the-ground theory, centered in compassion.

Carol J. Adams, author, The Sexual Politics of Meat

An erudite, engaging, and at times hilarious autobiography from one of the wisest voices of the animal rights movement.
