What she discovers is something far different from what their uptight shoebuckles- and-corn reputation might suggest-a highly literate, deeply principled, and surprisingly feisty people, whose story is filled with pamphlet feuds, witty courtroom dramas, and bloody vengeance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Vowell takes us from the modern-day reenactment of an Indian massacre to the Mohegan Sun casino, from old-timey Puritan poetry, where \"righteousness\" is rhymed with \"wilderness,\" to a Mayflower-themed waterslide. Throughout, \u003ci\u003eThe Wordy Shipmates\u003c\/i\u003e is rich in historical fact, humorous insight, and social commentary by one of America's most celebrated voices.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Riverhead Books","offers":[{"title":"Wordy Shipmates | Sarah Vowell | Paperback | 9781594484001 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks D 1759994","offer_id":49199023030424,"sku":"1759994","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81E-qY9fx0L.jpg?v=1780693772","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/wordy-shipmates-1","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
