Joseph Berchtold (& Heinrich Hoffmann)
Hitler ueber Deutschland

Report on the two "Deutschlandfluege" of the Fuehrer undertaken as a voting campaign because he had been denied the use of the radio". Consequently the propagandistic emphasis in both parts of the book, the text as well as the pictures is laid on the attractive power of numbers: so and so many came, so and so many listened, so and so many cheered etc. A most disgusting piling of superlatives.

"Hitler Wetter....

Unermuedlich; rastlose Energie...

Der Retter: Letzte Hoffnung des werktaetigen Volkes; ----------- "Das werktaetige Volk (i.e. die Armen und Bedrueckten) gruessen Adolf Hitler, wie einst Koenige nicht emfangen wurden..... Neue Glaube, neue Kraft....unverloeschbare Feuer werden in Herzen entzuendet....

Das Wunder dieser Fluege....
----------

Kaum Zeit zum Schlafen.....

An H's Geburtstag: ...."fast scheint es dass der Himmel blauer leuchtet und die Sonne heller strahlt als sonst." (p.34)

So ersetzt des Volkes gluehende Liebe Adolf Hitler was zu entbehren er vom Schicksal gezwungen ist, weil der Kampf fuer dieses Volk ihm keine Stunde goennt fuer sich selbst p.35

Keine Hochzeitskutsche und wohl wenige Blumenlaeden duerften Blumen in dieser Zahl auf einmal gesehen haben, wie wir sie jetzt in unserer Kabine fuehren. p.3
