Impeachment of Man by Savitri Devi

This is National Socialist philosopher Savitri Devi’s most intensely personal work in which she argues her case for animal rights, environmental protection, vegetarianism, and anti-vivisection; alongside a recognition of racial realities and the requirements of the natural cycle of demands for food and sustenance. Starting with a comparison of attitudes towards animals by the world’s major religions, and focusing on Christianity, Devi shows that all the major belief systems have rejected the principle of animal rights. She argues passionately for a new environmental approach, one which she admits will be very difficult to achieve, but which she feels is the only way to achieve a natural balance between the world of animals and man, which after all is one and the same.
