Sarah Vowell exposes the glorious conundrums of American history and culture with wit, probity, and an irreverent sense of humor. With Assassination Vacation, she takes us on a road trip like no other, a journey to the pit stops of American political murder and through the myriad ways they have been used for fun and profit, for political and cultural advantage.

Good book but did not translate well to audio
Revisado: 06-19-13
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I found the bits of trivia entertaining, but I would have rather read it than listened to it.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
I enjoyed Sarah on NPR, but in this book her reading was dry and there was no emphasis to those lines that would've read as quirky and humorous. Depending on the section it would either bore me or annoy me, instead of pull me into the story.
Do you think Assassination Vacation needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
I might be interested, but I would read it instead.
Any additional comments?
It's not a problem with the story, but instead with the narration.
