DENVER, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Less than two years after throwing the "bums" out of Washington, America seems poised to bring the Republicans back and Denver author Michael Cuddehe asserts that they'll bring their corruption and the failed policies that got us into this financial mess.

"Republican policies led directly to the economic calamity that we live with today," says Cuddehe, author of the new book "Chronicle of Catastrophe: A Contemporaneous History of the Bush Years." "Republicans are now posturing as fiscal conservatives. Amazingly, the American people are buying it."

Not if they read Michael Cuddehe's new book. A veteran analyst, trader and fund manager, he watched as America's failed economic policies set the stage for a predictable financial disaster. Now, he wants to educate the public on economic reality so we don't walk down the same road.

In the book, "Chronicle of Catastrophe: A Contemporaneous History of the Bush Years," Cuddehe's real-time reflection of the markets, economy, political issues and global developments during the George W. Bush administration puts our current economic troubles in context.

Cuddehe doesn't mince words or dumb down economic concepts. Instead, he clearly explains how bipartisan fiscal insanity, hubris, a machine culture that converted us from producers to consumers and the realignment of global power changed our world. He gives insights on threats looming in the short term and shows how individual investors can best position themselves in a tepid recovery. Most importantly, Cuddehe lays out what we must demand of our leaders.

"We must insist that our political and business leaders understand the place of business is within the context of society, not separate from it," Cuddehe asserts. "Only then can the creativity and vitality of capitalism flourish and lift the whole of society."

Cuddehe saw the financial crisis coming in 2002 when he published the first issue of Risk & Opportunity, a quarterly economic and political newsletter. With "Chronicle of Catastrophe: A Contemporaneous History of the Bush Years," Cuddehe gives thoughtful readers the tools to start a national conversation and revitalize America.
