Don't Just Take Our Word for It

“These manuscripts are perfect for the classroom teacher with a halfhearted or young group of students, or for a self-taught group of debaters who need to get up on debate really quickly.”

~Isaiah McPeak, Ethos Publications

~

“Finally, an effective, comprehensive debate resource for parents, coaches, and students alike. Monument Publishing's revised Red Book and Blue Book are what we have been waiting for!”

~Debi Chapman, Speak Out! North Texas

~

“A new coach could potentially 'open and teach' with this resource! For the seasoned coach, the reprieve of a well- organized lesson plan offers them the flexibility to be creative each week. Continual digital downloads will make refreshing topics a cinch as well.”

~Patricia Shaw, NSDA and Stoa Parent/Coach, TX

“I love how the books walk students through the argumentation and flowing process at each step—citing the speaker’s duty in each speech, how to flow and pre-flow and find weaknesses in their opponent's argument. This is invaluable!”

~Carrie Eben, Classical Conversations Challenge 1 Director

“Whether you are a coach searching for lesson plans, a clueless novice like I was, or a returning debater, I would recommend Blue Book 2016 to help guide you through debate fundamentals and equip you for the competitive season.”

~Stefanie Klaves, NCFCA Finalist 2015

“Now that I’ve seen the revised Red Book and Blue Book, I won’t teach debate without it!”

~Donna Seidman, IEW Exhibitor and Debate Coach
