Edward Winter points out that there is fierce competition for the worst book, and regular readers of his know that every Barnes and Noble (as well as just about any other bookstore) is well stocked with some of the leading candidates--authors Raymond Keene and Eric Schiller. Try to find something by either writer that is not terrible (and plagiarized).

On the subject of chess books, a comment by Lev Abramovich Polugayevsky is worth remembering.
'Ninety per cent of chess books you can open at page one, and then immediately close again for ever. Sometimes you see books that have been written in one month. I don't like that. You should take at least two years for a book, or not do it at all'.

with queens off the board, it's not so horrible that the king's in the centre.
White has a big strategic advantage. Run it through an engine & tell me what it scores after
1.d4...e5
2.dxe5...d6!?
3.e4...dxe5
4.Qxd8!...Kxd8
5.Nf3...Nc6
6.Bc4...f6
7.0-0
I'd be interested to know.
