description: It is the story of the man who, working from exile in Paris through his Black Front in Germany, may yet succeed Adolf Hitler by revolution, to bestow upon his country his own version of that disingenuous paradox, National Socialism.Otto Strasser was born in Bavaria 42 years ago, of a civil-servant father who was a Socialist at heart, a mother who nagged the Socialism out of him. When he emerged from World War I at 20, Otto was a creditably decorated artillery Lieutenant, already tinged with politics. His Socialism was such that he fought with Von Epp's Free Corps in 1919, to break Munich's Communist government. (Hitler did not. But he was in Munich then, may have been with the Communist troops.)
