本书基于数百小时的访谈写成，其中有些访谈对象是书中故事的主人公，有些则分享了信息和洞见；此外，出版资料也补充了一部分信息，其中最重要的资料来源列在下面。著名人物的小传全部根据二手资料写成，其中最有用的部分也列在了下面；小传有时会重述或引用主人公本人的话，这些引语可以在书籍、文章和歌曲里找到。各个年度的文字拼贴有一系列来源——报纸、杂志、书籍、演讲、歌曲、广告、诗歌、电影、电视节目——所有这些都是在注明的年份写成、出版、录制或播出的（在www.fsgbooks.com/theunwinding可以找到一份清单）[1]。虽然本书整体是一本非虚构作品，它在文学上受到了约翰·多斯·帕索斯（John Dos Passos）的伟大小说作品“美国三部曲”（U. S. A. trilogy）的影响；该作品出版于上世纪30年代，如今亟待重版。
