"Phoenix Senior English Advanced: Modules and Electives; 3rd Edition" by Barbara Stanners


Would anyone be kind enough to scan the pages relating to the "module B: speeches?"

Speeches include:
- Margaret Atwood 'Spotty-Handed Villainesses'
- The Honorable PJ Keating MP, Prime Minister 'Funeral Service of the Unknown Solider'
- Noel Pearson 'An Australian history for us all'
- Aung San Suu Kyi 'Keynote Address at the Beijing World Conference on Women'
- Faith Bandler 'Faith, Hope and Reconciliation'
- Sir William Deae, Governor General of the Commonwealth of Australia 'On the occasion of an ecumenical service for the victims of the canyoning tradgedy'
- Anwar Sadat, President of Egypt 'Statement to the Knesset'

That would be very much appreciated!

That's a lot of pages. :p It'd probably infringe copyright laws.
