For generations, men and women have been inspired by the oratory of their leaders. Transcending geographical barriers, their words have moved people and impacted civilizations. When Alexander the Great exhorted thus: 'Come then, add the rest of Asia to what you already possess', it inspired his battered army to victory; when Martin Luther King had a 'dream', it woke up entire humanity; and when Gandhi inspired the nation to 'Do or Die', colonial India rose to regain freedom. Words of Glory is a carefully curated collection of some of the most rousing and touching words spoken by leaders across the years-right from Alexander the Great to Gandhi. These speeches have stood the test of time, helped society to evolve, and enabled people to live and breathe without fear. Book jacket.
