Book Reviews of The Wordy Shipmates
Book Review: Another bullseye from Sarah Vowell
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great read and I have come to expect nothing less from Sarah Vowell. She makes history come alive like a more sarcastic version of Stephen Ambrose or a civil war reenactment. Like her other books, this book will make you laugh and learn simultaneously. I will be careful before using the word Puritan ever again, these people were not quite who I thought they were!Book Review: Goal Accomplished
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchaed this book for my daughter. It was on her wish list from Amazon. She is an avid reader and I am proud of that. I believe in opening peoples eyes through reading and learning about different viewpoints and opinions. She says she is enjoying the book very much.
My goal is accomplished.
Book Review: A brilliant and truly unique voice
Summary: 5 Stars
Sarah Vowel provides a fresh and unique voice in capturing the "roots" of american ideology, as well as multiple connections to the contemporary. Insighful, creative, and well captured narrative about U.S, history and it's current cultural formations.Book Review: great!
