Publisher
Campaigners Against Factory Farming
Edition
First soft cover edition. Short Title: The Larger Picture
Notes
Soft cover pamphlet; this statement by Merton has just recently been discovered as part of the Manifesto - as discussed in an article by Monica Weiss, SSJ, in the Merton Seasonal, vol. 36, #1, Spring, 2011. The statement is in response to a letter by one of the editors of the pamphlet, Roger Moody, requesting a contributing statement by Merton. Merton sends the requested statement and also offers to write "something longer" in his support of the issue (which he did indeed draft but likely never got around to sending). This significant statement demonstrates Merton's sensitivity to issues of ecology and social justice when few others were doing so. Supporters noted include Jacques Maritain, Bertrand Russell and Albert Schweitzer. Only one known copy is located in the WorldCat database of Libraries.

Merton's contribution appears on page 27 (31 total pages).
