Wit, Humor, Reason, Rhetoric, Prose, Poetry and Story woven into Eight Popular Lectures, George W. Bain (1915). Eight lectures by “The silver-tongued Kentuckian.”
A quote from the book:
Some persons seem to think lecturing a very simple occupation, requiring only a glib tongue, and a good pair of lungs.
George Washington Bain (b. 1840) was a temperance speaker and worked the Chautauqua circuit (among others). This site reports that Bain gave one of the lectures included in this book on July 15, 1905.
