Sarah Vowell made the Harold Washington Library last night's stop on her book tour promoting The Wordy Shipmates. The auditorium was packed and the voice that animated the Incredibles' Violet (and, frequently, Friday night This American Life episodes) kept everyone entertained with stories of the Massachusetts Bay Colony Way Back When and the back story of the concept of America as a City on a Hill.
