And I think I try to put myself in their shoes.
I mean, I think I try to do this today with people who are alive.

And so I think
I try to do that in this context, but everything you read, if you see a quote or an emotion or it came from somewhere, it's there's uh hundreds of pages of end notes in this book to really so you can actually see where the material came from.
It's not that I had to really craft it in my head, though I will say having covered the crisis of 2008, I think that actually helped me a lot understand sort of the emotional.
