Public Speaking - Paperback

by Irvah Lester Winter (Author)

Public Speaking: Principles and Practice begins, "This book is designed to set forth the main principles of effective platform delivery, and to provide a large body of material for student practice. The work laid out may be used to form a separate course of study, or a course of training running parallel with a course in debating or other original speaking. It has been prepared with a view also to that large number who want to speak, or have to speak, but cannot have the advantage of a teacher. Much is therefore said in the way of caution, and untechnical language is used throughout." The author gives numerous examples in each category that the student can use to practice each area of public speaking.
