OverviewNearly everybody remembers passages from a speech, a book or maybe just a snippet of conversation that sends a shiver down the spine. It is difficult to forget Roosevelt's Day of Infamy speech or Churchill's many inspiring broadcasts, and there are passages from Gibbon and Macaulay that are equally moving. This collection brings together extracts from some of the most inspiring speeches of statesmen and politicians, and from some of the greatest books ever written. From Plato to Julius Caesar, from Oliver Cromwell and Napoleon to Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King the reader will find the great words of the masters of language.
