Sounds Of The Reich: Nazi Party Radio And Speeches, Katelyn Hanners
Sounds Of The Reich: Nazi Party Radio And Speeches, Katelyn Hanners
Undergraduate Research Symposium
Radio broadcasts and speeches were key aspects of Nazi regime propaganda. From March 1927 to when the Nazi party won power in March 1933, Hitler made 455 public appearances, reaching close to 4.5 million people.
