SHADOW DOLLARS is about what happened in Baltimore, Maryland and other urban areas when officials decided to deceive the federal government and citizens by falsifying block grant reports documenting the expenditure of federal funds. The book describes an ongoing battle to get the city and quasi-public owners to comply with housing codes and the need for a nationwide tracking system for federal funds based on twenty first century technology. It shows how lives have been endangered for decades by failure to correct slum conditions. It also questions the legality of the executive branch actions in shutting down the FBI criminal investigation in Baltimore.
Shopsteading and the National Historic Structures Tax Act have had a positive impact nationwide, but no one wanted to investigate the fraud involving money allocated for redevelopment.
Armed with proof of massive fraud, the book tells how Gypsy Fauls' civil rights were violated at a public hearing she attended to request a city, state, and federal investigation.
SHADOW DOLLARS challenges elected officials to come clean and request amnesty for any criminal acts as part of a swamp rescue bailout agreement with the feds.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
