1. I love Sarah Vowell. I saw her do a reading of The Wordy Shipmates at the Chicago Public Library
last year. She stayed and signed every single person's books and pictures and whatever else they had with them. Her books are some of my favorites.

3. Sarah was an excellent guest on Rachel's show. She was poised and articulate and had
a few subtle comic moments too.

Can't wait to get the book.

5. I like honest people - she comes across as one of the real folks out there

glad Rachel isn't always looking to put on the big store because the small stories are so much a part of our nation's learning curve and this was an excellent example

7. I'm getting her book since I'm focusing on Religion, Economics, and society for my PhD.
This proves to be enlightening. Considering I haven't found a region or a time period to focus on.
