MODERN BRITISH ELOQUENCE

by David B.--Ed. Strother ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 1, 1969

Twenty-four speeches selected for their political impact rather than rhetoric (though, generally, that is notable too). Starting with William Pitt on taxation in the colonies (1766), the book includes Burke, Gladstone, Bevan, and ends with Winston Churchill on ""Parliament in the Air Raids"" (1940). Introductory portraits place the statesman and his policy.
