by Bernard Unti
In 1954, when The Humane Society of the United States was founded by a small handful of dedicated visionaries, the modern concept of "animal welfare" barely existed. A half century later, The HSUS has become the nation's largest animal protection organization, with a constituency of more than eight million people, and a leader in the parallel rise of the modern animal welfare movement. Protecting All Animals: A Fifty-Year History of The Humane Society of the United States is more than a chronicle of one organization, it is the saga of the journey toward a truly humane society.
Bernard Unti received his doctorate in history from American University in 2002. Protecting All Animals is his first book.
