520    Satan in America tells the story of America's complicated 
       relationship with the devil. "New light" evangelists of 
       the eighteenth century, enslaved African Americans, 
       demagogic politicians, and modern American film-makers 
       have used the devil to damn their enemies, explain the 
       nature of evil and injustice, mount social crusades, 
       construct a national identity, and express anxiety about 
       matters as diverse as the threat of war to the dangers of 
       deviant sexuality. The idea of the monstrous and the 
       bizarre providing cultural metaphors that interact with 
       historical change is not new. Poole takes a new tack by 
       examining this idea in conjunction with the concerns of 
       American religious history. The book shows that both the 
       range and the scope of American religiousness made 
       theological evil an especially potent symbol. Satan 
       appears repeatedly on the political, religious, and 
       cultural landscape of the United States, a shadow self to 
       the sunny image of American progress and idealism.
