What is "the book of love"? (Song lyrics from Don McLean's American Pie and LedZeppelin's Rock and Roll)

The second verse of "American Pie" opens with a Christian theme: Did you write the book of love. The phrase refers to the title of the 1958 song "The Book of Love" by The Monotones, that includes the lines:





Tell me, tell me, tell me


Oh, who wrote the Book Of Love


I've got to know the answer


Was it someone from above?

Not sure about Zepplin, but as far as American Pie goes its a song that was out in the late 50's by the moontones "who wrote the book of love"
