    Over the course of United States history, four different presidents have been assassinated in office. None of these assassinations have occurred in the past fifty years, making these intricate plots for political murder seem so far away to many. In Sarah Vowell’s nonfiction book, Assassination Vacation, she takes the reader on a road trip—a pilgrimage, as she calls it—exploring the assassinations of U.S. Presidents Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, and William McKinley.
