What is Words That Shook the World : 100 Years of Unforgettable Speeches and Events about?

Relive over twenty defining moments of the last 100 years. <p>History comes alive through the voices of the great leaders and newsmakers and in the photos of the biggest events of the past 100 years. From Winston Churchill and John F. Kennedy to Martin Luther King, Jr. and General Douglas MacArthur, Words That Shook the World is a collection of history-shaping speeches by some of the world's most exceptional orators.</p><p>Each speech is placed in its historical and personal context within the life and times of its author and the event. To enhance the experience, headlines and contemporaneous press coverage will give readers a glimpse into the popular and critical reception the speech received. The verbatim text of each speech plus running commentary by the author highlights key points and explains what made each speech so successful. Two hundred photographs complement these oratorical achievements and enhance readers' visual memories, while two audio CDs containing the most compelling sections from the 21 speeches--all but one of them (sorry Theodore Roosevelt was not recorded in 1903!) in the speakers' own voices--allow readers to appreciate their full spine-chilling power.</p><p
