The definitive guide to presenting. My edition is from 1988, when he presented at an IBM Agent's conference. He is the best presenter I have ever seen, and his book is full of tips and techniques to spice up your approach. It comes from the era before PowerPoint, when we used to use foils and flip charts, but that is a good thing - we jump to the PP slides too quickly. One of the presentations he did was called 60 tips in 60 minutes. One of my friends, Nigel Henzell-Thomas, turned that in to a book called Supercharge Your selling (giving David due credit of course!).

This was probably really good advice 30 years ago (1985). Now it is good advice; some of the recommendations are timeless good presentation techniques.

This is a 6 star book on presentation. Old but very valid. Used to be my bible.
I've read it in 1992. I am that old.
