Radical Religion in America: Millenarian Movements from the Far Right to the Children of Noah is a 1997 book by Jeffrey Kaplan. It was published by Syracuse University Press, part of their Religion & Politics series. It focuses on radical millenarian religious groups in the United States, those who believe strongly in an imminent apocalypse. This includes white supremacist religion like Christian Identity and racial paganism, but also the B'nai Noah. The book's foreword was written by Michael Barkun. The book received a largely positive reception, with praise for the information it provided, though reception to some of Kaplan's interpretations was more mixed.
