Stand and Deliver!

This book does a good job of summarizing everything you need before stepping up to deliver a speech. I also found it encouraging the way the author had structured and phrased it to make it sound more like it's every man's pocketbook before simple things like addressing your friends in a wedding or even giving a toast in your work party etc. Like it's no big deal to speak to many people. Nothing to fear. LOVE that approach!

Public speaking somehow instills fear in almost everyone and the author of this book did a great job of providing advice that was easy to follow. The positive attitude of the author shone throughout this book in the writing style.

This book provides advice on public speaking with a positive, but realistic approach. As an individual who recently started a job in which I need to provide training/do public speaking on a regular basis, this was a great resource. I will be employing the strategies learned from this book for my job. There were many lessons to be learned that are presented with real-life examples and quotations from famous/eminent speakers. The only point that I felt detracted from the flow of the book is that there were sometimes too many examples and quotes.
