5.0 out of 5 stars The Fundamentals, Jun 2 2003

By	Michael (Burbank, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Red Auerbach used to teach his legendary Boston Celtics to stick to the fundamentals. This book is filled with help to make your speeches memorable. This book will add impact to your next talk whether in school, work or a one on one meeting. The author presumes a basic knowledge of speech construction. If you want help with that read Jack Valenti.

4.0 out of 5 stars good, a bit conservative but good, April 25 2003

By	Tasteful (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews

definitely a very helpful and easy to read book. this guy has VERY obvious conservative leanings - his criticisms of democrats and drooling over republicans are a bit annoying. but if you can get past all that it's a handy guide to making one of life's chores more fun for you and your audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Tool For Speakers, Feb 26 2003

By	"scbryanw" (Fort Campbell, Kentucky United States) - See all my reviews

I expected a lot from this book and was still pleasantly surprised. James C. Humes is a very experienced speechwriter and speaker that takes the time to tell you some great secrets of public speaking.

The book goes through every aspect of speaking from opening to closing and beyond. Each section has many great ideas to take from it. There was no chapter that I did not walk away from saying, "That was a great idea!" When he makes a recommendation, he backs it up with supporting facts and real stories that illustrate the point.

The book is also easy to read. The writing style is easy to read and is interesting. Humes seamlessly ties in stories from the great speakers of history to demonstrate his ideas. Many of the stories are humorous, but all are good. Humes is also very clear in his recommendations, which leaves little confusion on the reader's part.

I would recommend this to anyone interested in public speaking.
