The Boys in the Bunkhouse: Servitude and Salvation in the Heartland by Dan Barry

Did not finish book. Stopped at 41%.

This is a book about intellectually disabled men who worked for Henry's Turkey Service of Texas, eviscerating and shackling turkeys for Louis Rich. While I was sympathetic  to the men's flight, being paid very little for a physically exhausting and nauseating job, I was also horrifie at the plight of the poor turkeys, Shackled when they were already terrorized, dipped in an electrified water bath to stun them, having their necks slit and then dunked in boiling water to loosen their pin feathers. Nowhere was there any pity for these poor intelligent animals in the book. I just couldn't read anymore.
