The Conspiracy Peddlers was the first of its kind.
Chapter by chapter, this booklet tackled the Liberty Lobby, Lyndon LaRouche and his various fronts, Conspiracy Queen Mae Brussell and Peter Beter, among others.
Dr. Beter, a former Import-Export bank official, worked himself into weekly frenzies about "Soviet nuclear warheads buried in U.S. coastal waters."
He even provided precise longitudes and latitudes of every concealed warhead.
Willis Carto threatened the publisher with a lawsuit. But never filed one.
