Ninety-Five
Meeting America's Farmed Animals in Stories and Photographs
No Voice Unheard
Ninety-Five puts faces and stories to lives that could have ended up on a dinner plate
Ninety-Five is a delightful and engaging anthology of writing and photography by rescuers, caregivers, and those who love the animals.
Each animal is portrayed with high quality, full-color photographs and a short story that demonstrate the animal’s personality, depth, emotions, quirks, relationships, and individuality. Some stories are quite dramatic and will leave the reader awed and amazed; while others will simply show who an animal is – from Justice, a steer who broke out of a truck on the way to the slaughterhouse, who now is the self-appointed “greeter” at his sanctuary, to the quiet happiness of Gilly, a small white hen rescued from a factory egg farm, who found peace in a loving home. Galleries of photos of other farmed animals will also engage the reader, and thumbnail photo footnotes provide additional information.
*Ninety-Five is the average number of animal lives spared annually by one person’s vegan diet.

No Voice Unheard has found a niche as an independent publisher of beautiful and creative books that are cutting edge in their content and presentation, giving voice to those who are ignored or disregarded by society, and illuminating important social issues often ignored by profit-driven publishers. In the tradition of great books like Silent Spring, Animal Liberation, Diet for a New America and others, we believe in the power of books to create social change. Our books include One at a Time: A Week in an American Animal Shelter, Thought to Exist in the Wild: Awakening from the Nightmare of Zoos, and the forthcoming Ninety-Five: Meeting America's Farmed Animals in Stories and Photographs. No Voice Unheard is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)3 organization founded and operated by former animal shelter workers with over forty combined years of experience in animal advocacy. We are dedicated to promoting compassion and respect for all living beings and the planet we share. |
