Overview

"Public Speaking: Principles and Practice" by Irvah Lester Winter is a guidebook on effective public speaking, presumed to be written in the early 20th century. The work aims to teach students the fundamentals of public speaking, providing both theoretical principles and practical exercises designed to enhance their speaking abilities. The opening portion of the book introduces the author's tribute to Charles William Eliot and establishes the book's goal: to instruct students in the art of public speaking, whether in formal speeches or less structured discussions. Winter emphasizes the importance of technical training and vocal mechanics for effective delivery while outlining the structure of the book, which includes discussions on vocal training, articulation, and platform practice. He presents a comprehensive framework aimed at not only improving vocal quality and expression but also equipping students to handle various speaking scenarios with confidence and skill.
