| Summary, etc. | "Stories of Achievement, Volume III, Orators and Reformers" by Asa Don Dickinson is a biographical collection written in the early 20th century. The volume highlights prominent figures known for their remarkable speeches and reformative actions, including Demosthenes, Elihu Burritt, John B. Gough, Frederick Douglass, Henry Ward Beecher, Booker T. Washington, and Ben. B. Lindsey. Each narrative delves into the lives of these historical figures, showcasing their struggles, perseverance, and ultimate successes, with the aim of inspiring readers through their stories of personal and societal triumph. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to the life of Demosthenes, the great Athenian orator who overcame a speech impediment through relentless practice and dedication. His journey begins with a surprising passion for oratory that ignites after witnessing the impressive skills of a fellow speaker. Despite being met with initial ridicule and personal setbacks, including a stammer and lack of confidence, Demosthenes perseveres by honing his craft in isolation and using unique methods, such as speaking with pebbles in his mouth. His story emphasizes themes of resilience and the power of self-improvement, setting the stage for the subsequent accounts of other prominent reformers and orators in the collection.
