About the Book

Businessperson, teacher, student, sales manager—just about everyone is called upon occasionally to “say a few words.” When that situation arises, turn to this volume to find speech-openers that command instant attention, poetic pieces that set a mood, or entertaining illustrations from life and literature that will add poignancy to any presentation. Organized by subject heading, and featuring a detailed index, A Complete Treasury of Stories for Public Speakers is extremely reader-friendly. This title, originally published in 1974, is available on-demand only.

“Admirable stories for use by public speakers . . . Appropriate for every kind of speaker and every kind of occasion.”
--The Book Exchange
