FWIW, the books you mentioned are on this other longer list of bad books of 20th century:

I got to read some of Beard's stuff in HS history.
Phew, I survived.

Great link you posted( The Fifty Worst Books of the Century ). Love those descriptions of the books, such as:
Charles Reich, The Greening of America (1970) Out of blue jeans, marijuana, free love, and the monumental egoism of a generation that refused to grow up, a Yale Law School professor concocted an adolescent fantasy: Consciousness III. Groovy, man.
Thanks for the introduction.
