When the Red Army discovered the Treblinka extermination camp, they found around forty survivors hiding in the nearby forest. Vasily Grossman interviewed these survivors along with local peasants. Grossman wrote a piece documenting the camp, flying to Moscow to have it published.[1] Znamya (Red Banner) published "The Hell of Treblinka", sometimes translated "The Hell Called Treblinka", in November 1944.[2] During the Nuremberg trials, Soviet authorities distributed the piece as evidence for the prosecution.[1]

Lewisohn's access to a wealth of previously unavailable primary sources had the effect of upending previous orthodoxy regarding the Beatles. In her study of Beatles historiography, historian Erin Torkelson Weber writes that the biggest reevaluation resulting from the book was an increased coverage on the contributions of McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, where previous writers had overemphasized the contributions of John Lennon.[1][note 1]
The book introduced new ideas and cleared up several discrepancies in the Beatles' history, including
- Discrediting the notion advanced by Norman in Shout! that Lennon was the sole driving creative force of the band.[3]
- discrepancies in memory regarding the length of time it took to record much of the album Please Please Me on 11 February 1963.[4] Accounts varied from nine and three-quarters hours to sixteen hours, whereas Lewisohn provides a precise figure of 585 minutes (nine and three-quarters hours),[5] beginning at 10:00 am and finishing at 10:45 pm.[S 2]
- Press reports described the feedback that introduces "I Feel Fine" as an "electronic accident".[6] Lewisohn disputes the characterization, noting that "Right form take one the Beatles had perfected the curious sound introduction.[S 3] Hertsgaard contends that the sound still could have been produced by accident during a rehearsal before recording had begun.[7]
- That the notion of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band being a concept album was not present until later in the album's sessions.[8]
- The existence of the unreleased song "Etcetera", written by McCartney and recorded on 20 August between "Mother Nature's Son" and "Wild Honey Pie".[9]
