Free the Animals (P): The Story of the Animal Liberation Front

Free the Animals is the story of Valerie, a 23-year-old police officer in Montgomery County, Maryland, whose world was turned upside down when she learned about the abuses of animals in laboratories. The book describes how this law-abiding woman came to challenge the system by taking direct action and examines why ordinary people are moved to do extraordinary things on behalf of animals. This edition of Free the Animals has been updated with a new foreword by Chrissie Hynde, lead singer of the rock group The Pretenders.
