"An unabashedly polemic, angry manifesto that is certain to open eyes, intensify outrage and incite argument about corporate greed. Through immersion reportage and graphic narrative, the duo illuminate the human and environmental devastation in those communities, with the warning that no one is immune. A call for a new American revolution, passionately proclaimed."--Kirkus, Starred Review

"Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is a journey through contemporary American misery and what can be done to change the course, interpreted through the eyes of two of today's most relevant literary journalists. The graphics illustrate what words alone cannot, capturing a past as it's told, where there's no longer anything left to photograph."--Asbury Park Press

"The book is a primer for every American who is overwhelmed by the uncertainty of the stock market, who wonders where America's muscle went, and how much heavy lifting our kids will face." --Seattle Times

"This is a book that should warm the hearts of political activists such as Naomi Klein or the nonagenerian Pete Seeger. And cause apoplexy among the Tea Party and its fellow travelers. Sure, it's a polemic, but it's a polemic with a human face."--Globe and Mail

"Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is, without question, the most profoundly disquieting (and downright shocking) portrait of modern America in recent years, and one that is essential reading for anyone wanting to comprehend the quotidian struggle of what sociologists called the underclass. To describe the book as Dickensian in its horror-show reports of frontline industrial decrepitude and socio-economic dysfunction is to engage in understatement. Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is unapologetically combative and profoundly J'accuse. And though many a conservative think-tanker could try to punch holes in its arguments no one can remain unmoved or unsettled by its brilliantly documented reportage from the precipice of a society that prefers to turn a blind eye to its nightmarish underside."

--The Times of London

"Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is as moving a portrait of poverty."--Boston Globe

"This searing indictment of our unsustainable society is unsettling. To keep our chance for dignity, we must do our part to champion the organizers and whistleblowers, committee members and protesters. Amen. Pass the word."--Brooklyn Rail

"A bleak, fist-shaking look at the effects of global capitalism in the United States."
--Joe Gross, Austin American-Statesman

"As quixotic as the quest may seem, Days of Destruction brings the rhetoric and the reality into a nobler focus after a very disturbing tour."

--The Star-Ledger (New Jersey)
