ASSINATION VACATION     by Sarah Vowell
The headline on the fly-leaf of this tongue-in-cheek  chronicle of pivot locations and obscure people associated with the untimely deaths of U.S. Presidents Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, and William McKinley says:  " a road map to the locations of American political violenceand ruminates on their lessons."   The  Simon & Schuster commentary continues, "Sarah Vowell exposes the glorious conundrums of American History and culture with probity, and an irreverent sense of humor." 
With remarkable forthrightness wisecracking humor, intermingled with  more trivia than you could use in week,  her travelogue is great FUN change-of-pace 'historic' book!
