Exploring America's intricate relationship with the devil, the book delves into how various groups, from eighteenth-century evangelists to modern filmmakers, have invoked Satan to articulate societal fears, injustices, and identity. It highlights the use of the devil as a symbol of theological evil, reflecting anxieties about war, sexuality, and morality. W.
