My favorite Sarah Vowell book. Hilarious and educational!
June 2014 reread: yep, still the case.
I was so sad when this book was over.. and I don't feel that way very often. A great combo of sly humor and history.
Really entertaining take on the Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley assassinations.
This was a fascinating, deeply neurotic book!
A lot of the stuff about Lincoln and Booth I'd learnt but the chapters on Garfield and McKinley were really interesting. I can appreciate the amount of research the author put into this morbid expedition.
