Average Book for a Best Man Speech

In an attempt to make a good Best Man's speech, I purchased this book to find some good phrases/jokes to add in to my speech. There were a few good phrases I found out of the ones provided, but only about 20% of them were any good. There was a lot of British type humor I didn't find funny, and some were pretty raunchy. This book does cover content, timing, length, and other things I didn't realize about making a good speech. It is a good starter book to get you on track to a really good speech.
