4.0 out of 5 stars Good for preachers
I have been using this book as a sermon resource for several years now and have used quite a few of the anecdotes throughout the book. I especially appreciate the in-depth index which guides me to the topics I need. It made me purchase Hodgin's other two compilations.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not true to its title
I found this book very disappointing. Its title is 1001 more humorous Illustrations for Public Speaking.

I found a lot of the content is not suitable for public speaking unless you are a preacher. A lot is in preaching. But I doubt whether many preachers would want to use it.

I wanted to use it in my public speaking club. Much is not appropriate for that...

I found this book very disappointing. Its title is 1001 more humorous Illustrations for Public Speaking.

I found a lot of the content is not suitable for public speaking unless you are a preacher. A lot is in preaching. But I doubt whether many preachers would want to use it.

I wanted to use it in my public speaking club. Much is not appropriate for that setting.

I found it bemusing that quite a bit of the book is not appropriate for a preacher to use either.

Although the book was only published in 1998, it had an old feel.

I would not recommend this for public speaking.
