Massive Rally for the Reich, 1937

Fueled by Hitler's oratory and the sense of being part of an epic, invincible movement, Nazi rallies saw hundreds of thousands of people -- or, in the case of this 1937 rally, more than a million -- swept up by the carefully calculated grandeur. "The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one," Hitler said.
