Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Third Printing, Stated. [12], 258, [2] pages. Illustrations. Preface, Four Chapters, and Acknowledgments. Her book Assassination Vacation (2005) describes a road trip to tourist sites devoted to the murders of presidents Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield and William McKinley. In this book, Sarah Vowell exposes the glorious conundrums of American history and culture with wit, probity, and an irreverent sense of humor. She takes us on a 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 advance. From Buffalo to Alaska, Washington to the Dry Tortugas, Vowell visits locations immortalized and influenced by the spilling of politically important blood, reporting as she goes with her trademark blend of wisecracking humor, remarkable honesty, and thought-provoking criticism. We learn about the jinx that was Robert Todd Lincoln (present at the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley) and witness the politicking that went into the making of the Lincoln Memorial. Though the themes of loss and violence are explored, and we see how the Republican Party became the Republican Party, there are lighter diversions along the way into the lives of the three presidents and their assassins, including mummies, show tunes, mean-spirited totem poles, and a nineteenth-century biblical sex cult. While most of the book is devoted to the assassinated presidents, Vowell intersperses anecdotes of her self-proclaimed "pilgrimage" of presidential assassinations, including a production of the musical Assassins. Sarah Vowell (born December 27, 1969) is an American author, journalist, essayist, social commentator and actress. She has written seven nonfiction books on American history and culture. She was a contributing editor for the radio program This American Life on Public Radio International from 1996 to 2008, where she produced numerous commentaries and documentaries and toured the country in many of the program's live shows. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: What do you get when a woman who's obsessed with death and U.S. history goes on vacation? This is a wacky, weirdly enthralling exploration of the first three presidential assassinations. Vowell takes readers on a pilgrimage of sorts to the sites and monuments that pay homage to Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley, visiting everything from grave sites and simple plaques to places like the National Museum of Health and Medicine, where fragments of Lincoln's skull are on display. An expert tour guide, Vowell brings into sharp focus not only the figures involved in the assassinations, but the social and political circumstances that led to each-and she does so in the witty, sometimes irreverent manner. Thus, readers learn not only about how Garfield found himself caught between the Stalwarts and the Half-Breeds, bitterly divided factions of the Republican party, but how his assassin, Charles Guiteau was a supporter of the Stalwarts and an occasional member of the Oneida Community. Vowell also draws frequent connections between past events and the present, noting similarities between McKinley's preemptive war against Cuba and the Philippines and the war in Iraq. This is history at its most morbid and most fascinating and one can thoroughly enjoy this unusual tour. David Levinthal (Jacket photograph). Bennett Mill (illustrator).…

Zustand: as new. New York :Dover Publications, 2003. Paperback. 120 pp. - Discussed and debated from time immemorial, the concept of personal liberty went without codification until the 1859 publication of On Liberty. John Stuart Mill's complete and resolute dedication to the cause of freedom inspired this treatise, an enduring work through which the concept remains well known and studied. The British economist, philosopher, and ethical theorist's argument does not focus on "the so-called Liberty of the Will.but Civil, or Social Liberty: the nature and limits of the power which can be legitimately exercised by society over the individual." Mill asks and answers provocative questions relating to the boundaries of social authority and individual sovereignty. In powerful and persuasive prose, he declares that there is "one very simple principle" regarding the use of coercion in society -- one may only coerce others either to defend oneself or to defend others from harm.
