Public Speaking: Principles and Practice
by Irvah Lester Winter
Publisher: The Macmillan Company 1913
ISBN/ASIN: 1438536399
Number of pages: 440
Description:
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.
