It is rare for the written word to match
the captivating energy of a wonderful
speech, and it’s this energy that gives great
speeches the capacity to drive incredible
change and inspire the masses. The
wisdom of politicians, poets, musicians
and activists from all around the world is
brought together in this wonderfully curated
volume. From Julia Gillard’s fiery takedown
of misogyny in Australian politics, to
North Korean human-rights activist Yeonmi
Park’s shocking revelation about life in her
former home nation, to the moving words of
emancipated slave and abolitionist Sojourner
Truth on women’s rights, Speeches of Note
places some of the greatest speeches in
human history side by side. An empowering
book that is very difficult to put down.
