Speeches of note : a celebration of the old, new and unspoken

2018
Books, Manuscripts
This is a celebration of oratory old and new; an obsessively curated, richly illustrated, and sumptuously produced collection of speeches from throughout the ages. Some are surprising, inspiring, hilarious; others are moving, comforting, enlightening. Some of these speeches changed the course of history; others are all but unknown, even unspoken, such as the chilling public announcement to be made by President Nixon should Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin become stranded on the Moon.
