Especially helpful for people inexperienced or who hate giving presentations to people. Even those who do it more often can learn from an expert. And if you feel strongly about something, she doesn't insist you abide by "the rules." Her stories of what worked and didn't are interesting. But her story about the speaker who broke all the rules, totally ignored politically correct views and spoke from the heart to take a jaded Washington D.C. audience by storm is worth the price of the book many times over all by itself. But if you want to really grasp the motives of one of the true "saints" of recent decades (Mother Theresa) and understand the real foundations of the beliefs of the majority of Americans today (life), buy this book.
I bought this book used because I could not find it new. Yes, it has wear and tear, crimped pages, highlights, and lots of handwritten notes from the previous user. All the more helpful to me as I read it for the same reasons they did. Anyone who wants to write well, needs to look to one of the best speech writers of our time, Peggy Noonan, who wrote many of President Ronald Reagan's speeches, and came up with many of the one-liner's credited to him that will go down in history as masterful communications. Who knew, a great woman really was behind the man! I am greatful that a woman like Peggy Noonan has broken the glass ceilings for women who follower after her, and she is sharing some great information about how she did what she did that took her to the top of the cream.
After forcing myself to read through it all, objectively speaking it has a few tidbits and excerpts worth reading. However, it’s twenty years old at this point. Buyer beware.
Peggy Noonan provides a witty and concise look at speaking, writing speeches and understanding the dynamics of various types of presentation - such as eulogies - in this concise and well written book. Having spent the last 25 years speaking in front of audiences, I recently have had a few less than stellar moments, and was looking for a quick refresher/primer and Noonan's book provides it. Yes, she was a political speechwriter. Yes, she is on TV as a conservative talking head. Separate the politics from the pedagogy. This is a good book, and an interesting read. The insights she provides into speech giving and speech writing at the highest levels of the craft are unparalleled.
When Noonan begins her book describing what a terrible public speaker she is, then she has lost all credibility for writing a book on speaking well. Her book is chatty but useless. I recommend instead https://www.amazon.com/Political-Speechwriters-Companion-Writers-Speakers/dp/1604265493/ The Political Speechwriter's Companion: A Guide for Writers and Speakers by Robert Lehrman The Political Speechwriter's Companion: A Guide for Writers and Speakers
The title of this book is a misnomer. The author is a professional political writer and she uses political anecdotes throughout the book to drive the points home. This book should be called "On Speaking and Writing Political Speeches Well". Also, the book has no table of contents and only has a modicum of sections. This makes it difficult to read. And I find that the index is not very useful. However, this is not to say that the tips and lessons cannot be extrapolated to cover all conceivable situations. In fact they can, if you have the patience. I therefore agree with the blurb that for "anyone who fears the thought of writing and giving a speech - be it to business associates, or at a wedding - help is at hand". This book consists of hundreds of blinding insights. 10 of them are: (1). The reality you are imagining is worse than the reality that will be; (2). Reagan used to say that noone wants to sit in an audience in respectful silence for more than 20 minutes; (3). I have made more than 100 speeches and I still cannot do it from cards, every word has to be written down in a text; (4). Reagan always needed a joke at the top of a speech because he needed the quick victory of laughter; (5). Tell'em what you you've gonna tell'em - tell them - then tell them what you told'em; (6). True things are usually said straight, and plain and direct; (7). The most moving thing is a speech is always the logic, not its poetic or flowery; (8). Speeches actually have to say things. And great speeches are great because they say great things; (9). Style is not a replacement for substance, and cannot camouflage a lack of substance; and (10). The future does not belong to the fainthearted, it belongs to the brave. Because this book contains hundreds of blinding insights, I am prepared to give it 5 stars. Digest this book and your public speaking skills will improve dramatically.
As a speechwriter myself, I long ago credited this with being one of the best books on the craft ever written. Peggy Noonan is the best (at speechwriting, not necessarily in her choice of today's political candidates.)
I am glad I followed my professor recommendation to read this book. A must have reference for anyone wishing to improve public speaking skills
