I read this book as a complete joke. The author is the same fellow behind the riotous 60s brochure "Communism, Hypnotism, and the Beatles." This early-80s book was printed basically to cash in on the increased interest in Lennon in the wake of his death and fan the flames of the burgeoning PMRC movement. Noebel spends eight poorly edited, typo-riddled chapters blaming the Beatles--and Lennon specifically--for every sin in Western civilization.
He occasionally reaches out to broadside other bands too, including revealing the "occultism" of Styx and ELO !
Even better, a former reader has scrawled arguments with the book's passages throughout the margins. Truly, it is dated, hysterical hilarity.
