...his views are refreshing because he strives to have an honest dialogue about the election. There’s none
of the us-versus-them vitriol that has pockmarked the conservative and liberal debate; Krouchick seeks to
offer real solutions to all Americans...

of a populace and capturing the everyday details of an American life about to change. One hopes that after the

remains a historical source, as well as a reminder of the events that changed a nation.
ForeWord Clarion Review Four Stars (out of Five)
This book is written from the heart and one which every middle-class American can relate to. This is the first
time that I felt someone really understood the deep fear and uncertainty about the future experienced during the
fall of 2008. A thought-provoking and insightful read.

As the events of 2008 unfolded, I often wondered how the backbone of America, the middle-class, felt about the
economy, the country, and the election. 47 Days That Changed America provides a great insight into how a
middle-class American feels about the challenging event of the time. It was a fascinating and enlightening read.

A book that grabbed me in the first few pages. It was fascinating to revisit the dark days of fall 2008 with
someone who felt the same confusion, fear and doubt about America's future that I experienced.
Well worth reading.

participant. Readers wanting to understand a successful middle-class perspective of what’s happening around
