From the New York Times–bestselling author of Assassination Vacation and The Partly Cloudy Patriot, an examination of the Puritans, their covenant communities, their deep-rooted idealism, their political and cultural relevance in today’s world, and their myriad oddities. In The Wordy Shipmates, Sarah Vowell travels once again through America’s past, this time to seventeenth-century New England, where she studies the Puritan effect and finds their beliefs about church and state more interesting than their buckles-and-corn reputation would suggest.

As in all Vowell’s bestselling books, this exploration of America’s past is both poignant and entertaining. The Wordy Shipmates is rich with historical fact, humorous insight, and social commentary by one of America’s celebrated voices.
