The impact of The Late Great Planet Earth cannot be overstated. The New York Times called it the “no. 1 non-fiction bestseller of the decade.” For Christians and non-Christians of the 1970s, Hal Lindsey’s blockbuster served as a wake-up call on events soon to come and events already unfolding—all leading up to the greatest event of all: the return of Jesus Christ.

The years since have confirmed Lindsey’s insights into what biblical prophecy says about the times we live in. Whether you’re a churchgoing believer or someone who wouldn’t darken the door of a Christian institution, the Bible has much to tell you about the imminent future of this planet. In the midst of an out-of-control generation, it reveals a grand design that’s unfolding exactly according to plan.

The rebirth of Israel. The threat of war in the Middle East. An increase in natural catastrophes. The revival of Satanism and witchcraft. These and other signs, foreseen by prophets from Moses to Jesus, portend the coming of an antichrist . . . of a war that will bring humanity to the brink of destruction . . . and of incredible deliverance for a desperate, dying planet

MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
I will be forever thankful to this author and this wonderful book. It is an honor to be able to write a review about it.
I first read this book over 30 years ago and it changed my life.
The information in it was mind boggling and kept me glued to the pages for hours. I shared it with everyone I knew.
Recently someone gave me the book again, and yes I again sat and read it from cover to cover. Written in a clear and understanding way, this book will move you to not only seek out Bibical prophecy for yourself, but examine your own heart in this last hour that we are living.
If you have never read this book;I urge you to get yourself a copy and read it every so often until the Lord appears.
Highly recommended.

Must read book for any student of Prophecy
Hal Lindsey is one of the Premier if not the highest regarded prophecy teacher of the 20th century. Any student of Prophecy should read this wonderful book written almost 35 years ago. This book was the number one selling book between 1970-1980 after the Bible on the NY best sellers list. I suggest anyone that is interested in prophecy add this to their collection.

I Love This Stuff
Whenever I think we may have actually progressed out of the Dark Ages, I remember that people actually spend good money to read Hal Lindsey's superstitious nonsense. Back in the late 1970s, I read this one, and was amused at its "predictions" for the future. The fact that none of these biblical "prophets" ever gets anything right never stops guys like Lindsey from making a fortune on books like this.
If you read the Bible, you'll see that Jesus believed he was coming right back. He says it over and over again in the Gospels. Guess what ... he was wrong. And that mistake, which Bertrand Russell (among others) has written about (see "Why I Am Not a Christian") has led Christians to wait for 2,000 years for a mythical second coming, which has become a veritable cottage industry.
Because Lindsey's always wrong, he can come out with a new book every year or so, "reinterpreting" the "facts" and make himself a pile of money from the poor benighted sheep who take this stuff seriously. This book got the "end times" ball rolling, but it will never stop, because no matter how wrong this stuff is, someone will always write another one claiming to have it right.
Someday, it will be the year 3000, and Hal Lindsey's descendants will be writing about how Jesus is coming any day now because a sheep with three horns was born in Fiji or Ecuador has just invaded Brazil ... and the Bible predicted it would happen to signal the last days.
More power to you Hal -- P.T. Barnum had it right.
