Beschreibung:
Waldo W. Braden, at his death in 1991, was Boyd Professor Emeritus of Speech Communication at Louisiana State University. He was the author of The Oral Tradition in the South and many other books.
In Abraham Lincoln, Public Speaker, Waldo W. Braden presents a thought-provoking study of the sixteenth president's rhetorical style. In his discussion of Lincoln's speaking practices from 1854 through 1865, Braden draws extensively on Lincoln's papers and the reports of those who knew him and heard him speak. He portrays Lincoln in his various shows how Lincoln adapted to the public's growing recognition of his political abilities.
