Description During Books Eternal Treblinka: Our Treatment of Animals and the Holocaust
The book examines the origins of human supremacy, describes the emergence of industrialized slaughter of both animals and people in modern times, and concludes with profiles of Jewish and German animal advocates on both sides of the Holocaust.ETERNAL TREBLINKA describes disturbing parallels between how the Nazis treated their victims and how modern society treats animals. The title is taken from a story by the Yiddish writer and Nobel Laureate Isaac Bashevis Singer: "In relation to them, all people are Nazis; for the animals it is an eternal Treblinka."
The Foreword is by Lucy Kaplan, former attorney for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), who is the daughter of Holocaust survivors. ETERNAL TREBLINKA has already received support from more than 200 humane, animal protection, and environmental groups around the world.

Ive been debating becoming vegan for a little while now. This book has cemented my decision. Eternal Treblinka gives haunting parallels to the horrible acts humans have done over time to those that are perceived as weaker by whatever misguided opinion the masses follow. As an animal lover my eyes have become wide open to give me the passion to make a lifestyle change.Quite vivid and descriptive text. Yet another very disturbing and depressing story.
After reading this book you never have to wonder again if holocaust comparisons in human treatment of animals are justified.

While Eternal Treblinka was not as earth-shattering for me as some reviews have positioned it, it was the most emotionally difficult book Ive ever read.Atrocities against victims human and otherwise are catalogued, in their many manifestations throughout history. This isnt the sort of book to read if you still harbor a rosy view of the implicit goodness of humanity, especially when in a place of power. The voices raised against the tremendous cruelty and injustice seem but a mouses squeak over
An excellent book. For anyone who cares at all about animals, please read this book. The atrocities perpetrated on the innocent during Nazi Germany continue daily for millions of sentient beings around the world. Eating the flesh and secretions of animals or using any part of their bodies makes one complicit in the horrors experienced by small, innocent, defenseless sentient beings in concentration camps (a.k.a. slaughterhouses.) I won't even feed my pets animals any longer. There are several
I would give this book 5 stars, except for two things:1) the conflicting views of advancing veganism: through reform (gradual change) or through promoting veganism exclusively.2) it makes a case that animal use led to the Holocaust (and by implication other horrors), without considering other possible factors.Charles outlines the scale and awful nature of animal use, yet presents a wavering view of how to deal with it. You don't confront the gravity of the problem by tinkering at its edges with
A someone who visited Treblinka, and having had a grandfather who escaped Treblinka, I found this a crucial read.No other book covers the history of people's treatment of each other and its relationship to our treatment of animals. It is a hard read, but it is worth every word.
