Prefaced by brief historical and biographical introductions, the examples in this book show how words can be used to inspire, to comfort, or to move even the most seemingly hard-bitten of listeners. Spanning over two millennia and with speeches from across the globe, We Shall Fight on the Beaches is a book to inspire and inflame the reader.
