{"product_id":"9798216278351","title":"Rowdy Girl : Confessions of a Vegan Cattle Rancher - Renee King-Sonnen","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith raw honesty and vulnerability, Rowdy Girl illuminates the realities of animal agriculture through tracing the author's journey from a poor upbringing to life as the wife of a Texas cattle rancher. Unable to reconcile the cruel realities of her husband Tommy's business, Renee King-Sonnen begins to question some of society's most basic assumptions about the animals we eat and the food systems we uphold. These questions spark a profound transformation-and a determination to save the very cattle her husband's livelihood depends on. The couple's opposing worldviews lead to escalating conflict, pushing their marriage to the brink. Seeking support, King-Sonnen connects with online vegan communities and launches a secret Facebook diary, The Vegan Journal of a Cattle Rancher's Wife. With a growing following, she rallies support for an ambitious plan: buy Tommy's herd, take over the ranch, and transform it into an animal sanctuary. The suspense peaks in December 2014, when Tommy agrees to sell her the cattle for $30,000-if she can raise the funds before they're sent to slaughter. More than a memoir, Rowdy Girl is a story of spiritual awakening and ethical transformation. It reveals the shared ground between ranchers and vegans-a commitment to compassion, tradition, and sustainability-while challenging the foundations of animal agriculture. Through her deeply personal journey, King-Sonnen invites readers to consider their own relationship with animals, the food they eat, and the possibility of living with greater compassion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee King-Sonnen","offers":[{"title":"272 pages, 13 b\u0026w photos \/ 03\/09\/2026 \/ Memoirs","offer_id":57208954683767,"sku":"9798216278351","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9798216278351.jpg?v=1782130269","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9798216278351","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
