Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The Art of Public Speaking
Albert Jeremiah Beveridge · 1924
51/100
👎 Skip It
Beveridge was a real orator and later a Pulitzer-winning historian, so there's genuine credibility here — but at roughly 67 pages, this is a sketch, not a full treatment. Interesting as a historical artifact, thin as a how-to.
