Public speaking is one of the things many fear the most. This fear
is justified--Many eyes to look into and many minds to contend
with. Thoughts are elusive. The catcher of powerful thoughts--the
apt words--are even more elusive. Yet, you do not need to despair.
By standing on the shoulders of great orators, you can also speak
with facility, felicity, cogency, and potency.
Great orators have produced immortal thoughts couched in
immortal words. This book selects the gems and the most versatile
phrases in the top 100 speeches in the history of American rhetoric
of the last century, so that you do not have to tire your mind and
tax your time spending months going through all these speeches to
mine the diamonds of powerful thoughts and felicitous words. This
book furnishes you with powerful and ready blocks for the efficient
construction of edifices of powerful ideas embodied in powerful
words.
The top 100 speeches are the most significant American
political speeches of the 20th century, according to 137 leading
scholars of American public address. Their inclusion and ranking
are based on their "social and political impact," "rhetorical
artistry," "eloquence," and "power."
