Fascinated by presidential killings and their public commemoration, author and NPR contributor Sarah Vowell helms a whirlwind tour of American history in
Assassination Vacation. She visits sites and artifacts related to Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley -- all the while weaving in her trademark humor and social commentary. If you like this title, check out some of Vowell's other books --
The Partly Cloudy Patriot,
The Wordy Shipmates, and
Unfamiliar Fishes. HM
