Speak Like Churchill, Stand Like Lincoln: 21 Powerful Secrets of History's Greatest Speakers

I Purchased this book with the intention to learn few Public Speaking tips and honing my oratory skills. Though this books subtitle says 21 powerful secrets of Greatest speakers. I feel it only revolves around Churchill's speaking style. I strongly disagree with the authors recommendation as the current day speakers do not have any of this traits highlighted. This Book does not pass the test of time.The Book details on the 21 tips used by Churchill and other leaders. Though in my view this tips which worked wonders in that era do not apply to the current age. Just imagine a leader of current era speaking in the speed of Martin Luther. We simply do not have so much of time to listen to words with such slow speed, and with the available information even speakers will not be able to convey all they want to.The famous Gettysburg speech or Poem narrated by Lincoln is very slow paced but the same was read by Obama, and the speed is way fast.

the book is not worthy of it's cost.
