The speeches that changed the political tide; which are unforgettable for their eloquence; those which marked a seminal moment in India's history: here is Subhas Chandra Bose rousing his jawans, Jinnah's opening speech for the Pakistani parliament, Nehru envisioning the temples of the future, a young Vajpayee espousing the cause of Tibet. And here also is the speech that heralded the Emergency, Manmohan Singh's plea for economic reform, and Amartya Sen discussing Satyajit Ray. Together they tell the story of modern India - from her move to independence to the battles thereafter. Inspiring and instructive, The Great Speeches of Modern India will give you a front row view of India's history as it happened from the men and women who made it.

This collection of notable speeches by early-day leaders of twenty-two Indian tribes adds a new dimension to our knowledge of the original Americans and their own view of the tide of history engulfing them. Little written record of their oratory exists, although Indians made much use of publics address. Around the council fires tribal affairs were settled without benefit of the written word, and young men attended to hear the speeches, observe their delivery, and consider the weight of reasoned argument. Some of the early white men who traveled and lived among the Indians left transcriptions of tribal council meetings and speeches, and other orations were translated at treaty council meetings with delegates of the United States government. From these scattered reports and the few other existing sources this book presents a reconstruction of contemporary thought of the leading men of many tribes. Chronologically, the selections range from the days of early contact with the whites in the 1750’s to a speech by Quanah Parker in 1910. Several of the orations were delivered at the famous Medicine Lodge Council in 1867. A short biography of each orator states the conditions under which the speeches were made, locates the place of the council or meeting, and includes a photograph or copy of a painting of the speaker. Speakers chosen to represent the tribes at treaty council were all orators of great natural ability, well trained in the Indian oral traditions. Acutely conscious that they were the selected representatives of their people, these men delivered eloquent, moving speeches, often using wit and sarcasm to good effect. They were well aware of all the issues involved, and they bargained with great statesmanship for survival of their traditional way of life.
