'The theme of this article is that the anti-Catholic movement, which reached its zenith in the 1850s, was not unique. It reveals common features with the anti-Masonic crusade, which flourished in the early 1830s, and with the anti-Mormon movement of the 1870s and 1880s. A comparison of these movements suggests the existence of a subsurface current of American thought which, particularly in the nineteenth century, could erupt in a geyser of hostility upon a tight-knit minority.' Cannon's piece is an interesting counterpoint to the more well-known arguemnt of David Brion Davis.
