The rhetoric of persons whose words created and changed history is represented in this edition. The master orators' elegantly delivered and brilliantly worded speeches captured the interest, imagination, and heart of their audiences and heralded individuals and nations into better, stronger times, transcending place and time. This hardbound version features a ribbon bookmark, gilded edges, and stunning endpapers, making it a must-have for any reader.
Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).
If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.
Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.
