"I can testify to the effectiveness and superiority of A Speaker's Guidebook over our previous textbook. It was easy to use, plan lessons around, and adjust to. The topic coverage is excellent--with the added advantage of being succinct. Chapter lengths are good; the organization of topics is good. The frequent appearance of checklists in shaded boxes is very helpful."
