CHAPTER THIRTEEN

THE DEMONIC MEISTERSINGER

A Pied Piper from the Flophouse

“Hitler's gestures and the emotional character of his speaking, lashing himself up to a pitch of near hysteria in which he would scream and spit his resentment, had the same effect on his audience. . . . He succeeded in communicating a passion to his listeners, so that men groaned and hissed and women sobbed involuntarily, if only to relieve the tension, caught up in the spell of powerful emotions of hatred and exultation, from which all restraint had been removed.... His power to bewitch an audience has been likened to the occult arts of the African Medicine-man or the Asiatic Shaman; others have compared it to the sensitivity of a medium, and the magnetism of a hypnotist.”
