Description
Over 50 pivotal speeches from history, including a DVD with recordings, make up this comprehensive anthology. From rallying cries to calls for peace, and from declarations of freedom to words of inspiration, this collection brings together the voices of leaders and thinkers who shaped the world. Speeches by influential figures such as Aung San Suu Kyi, Al Gore, Malala Yousafzai, and Pope Francis are featured, along with introductions explaining their historical context and impact. A biography of each speechmaker provides insight into their roles in history, while the accompanying speeches offer a unique perspective on significant events. This revised edition includes speeches that have had a lasting impact on the modern world, and the DVD includes recordings of many of the featured speeches.
