Synopsis So-Called Dollars by : Harold E. Hibler
When So-Called Dollars was published it was the first, and it is still the only book to deal comprehensively with its subject matter. The book begins with the legendary Erie Canal Completion issues of 1826 and proceeds to catalog 135 years of the Golden Age of American history, all the way up to 1961. Although there have been many propositions for reviving the book over the years, none were more than theoretical musings until two collectors, Tom Hoffman of Crystal Lake, IL and Jonathan Brecher of Cambridge, MA set the process in motion. They have been joined by two others, Dave Hayes and John Dean, to produce a remarkable new edition, of the sort that can only be the product of dedicated hobbyists who love their subject and see it as their obligation to share with others the knowledge gained from years of collecting. While the second edition holds true to the original in basic style and in substance, prices have skyrocketed and it offers much that is new. There are many more illustrations than in the first edition. In fact, virtually every type is now represented by a photograph. More historical information for the issues is presented in the text, which has been further expanded with additional listings of both previously unknown metal varieties and totally new items. The size of each item is now given in mm rather than in 16ths of an inch as in the 1963 edition. Each issue has been assigned a rarity rating of from R-1, indicating more than 5,000 known, to R-10, meaning unique. In addition, a loose-leaf price guide included in each book at no additional charge. The index has been expanded to include references to more subjects and places. Finally, there is a section of color plates. The Hibler & Kappen book remains the standard reference work on the subject with its HK numbers an instantly recognizable means of cataloging and identification.

Synopsis Dancing for Dollars by : Victoria M. Howard
Dancing for Dollars is a raucous, intoxicating novel about four prodigious women who originate from different backgrounds and lifestyles. As fate would have it, they meet at an upscale gentlemans club in South Florida and develop a strong friendship, peregrinating through the journey called life. Dancing for Dollars takes you into the exciting and dangerous world of exotic dancers, modeling, Hollywood, and hermaphrodites. This book is a combination of a modern day Valley Of The Dolls, Fifty Shades of Grey and Magical Mike. Florida Author Dubbed The New Jacqueline Susann BOCA RATON, Fla., Nov. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Victoria M Howard, author of the best seller WHY WOMEN LOVE BAD BOYS has just published her 16th book titled DANCING FOR DOLLARS. It is the compelling story of four ecdysiasts that dance for dollars in a gentleman's club in the dazzling backdrop of the South Beach nightclub scene. Although the book is fiction, Ms. Howard interviewed dozens of ecdysiasts, bouncers, barmaids and patrons who visited the billion-dollar business of strip clubs---- relaying the hair-raising question of what goes on 'behind the curtains.' You'll meet 'the John's', the Junkies, the mega-rich and powerful through the eyes of the four main characters: Francesca Falconi, Mika Wu, Abella Erikkson and Abigail Jones-- each a composite of the real life dancers Ms. Howard came in contact with. After a brief career of 'Dancing for Dollars' the girls go separate ways, each becoming rich and famous. Francesca is Hollywood's new Marilyn Monroe; Abella launches a glittering New York modeling agency with her loverthe nations #1 model. Mika moves to Washington D.C. and becomes Madam and Dominatrix to the political elite, and Abigail, a hermaphrodite evades a life-threatening secret. "DANCING FOR DOLLARS" is a combination of Valley of the Dolls, Magic Mike, and Fifty Shades of Grey," says Howard. It has everything of a contemporary bestseller --- including sex, drugs, rock-n-roll, espionage and murder. Emmy Award Winning Producer Allan Jay Friedman calls it "one of Howards' best" and actor Michael Callan cited, "If I were still acting, I would ask for a role in the movie." The book is available at Author House, Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

"Money may seem hopelessly mundane and culturally meaningless, but it has dominated--and documented--world history since the time of the ancient Greeks. This heavily illustrated book provides a spirited account of the first coinages and their living descendants in our pockets and purses. It explains how people from Jesus to The Beatles have used numismatics to explore the social, political, economic, and religious history of the world"--

Synopsis Giving Done Right by : Phil Buchanan
A practical guide to philanthropy at all levels of giving that seeks to educate and inspire A majority of American households give to charity in some form or another--from local donations to food banks, religious organizations, or schools, to contributions to prevent disease or protect basic freedoms. Whether you're in a position to give $1 or $1 million, every giver needs to answer the same question: How do I channel my giving effectively to make the greatest difference? In Giving Done Right, Phil Buchanan, the president of the Center for Effective Philanthropy, arms donors with what it takes to do more good more quickly and to avoid predictable errors that lead too many astray. This crucial book will reveal the secrets and lessons learned from some of the biggest givers, from the work of software entrepreneur Tim Gill and his foundation to expand rights for LGBTQ people to the efforts of a midwestern entrepreneur whose faith told him he must do something about childhood slavery in Ghana. It busts commonly held myths and challenging the idea that "business thinking" holds the answer to effective philanthropy. And it offers the intellectual frameworks, data-driven insights, tools, and practical examples to allow readers to understand exactly what it takes to make a difference.

Synopsis Andrew Carnegie Speaks to the 1% by : Andrew Carnegie
Before the 99% occupied Wall Street... Before the concept of social justice had impinged on the social conscience... Before the social safety net had even been conceived... By the turn of the 20th Century, the era of the robber barons, Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) had already accumulated a staggeringly large fortune; he was one of the wealthiest people on the globe. He guaranteed his position as one of the wealthiest men ever when he sold his steel business to create the United States Steel Corporation. Following that sale, he spent his last 18 years, he gave away nearly 90% of his fortune to charities, foundations, and universities. His charitable efforts actually started far earlier. At the age of 33, he wrote a memo to himself, noting ..".The amassing of wealth is one of the worse species of idolatry. No idol more debasing than the worship of money." In 1881, he gave a library to his hometown of Dunfermline, Scotland. In 1889, he spelled out his belief that the rich should use their wealth to help enrich society, in an article called "The Gospel of Wealth" this book. Carnegie writes that the best way of dealing with wealth inequality is for the wealthy to redistribute their surplus means in a responsible and thoughtful manner, arguing that surplus wealth produces the greatest net benefit to society when it is administered carefully by the wealthy. He also argues against extravagance, irresponsible spending, or self-indulgence, instead promoting the administration of capital during one's lifetime toward the cause of reducing the stratification between the rich and poor. Though written more than a century ago, Carnegie's words still ring true today, urging a better, more equitable world through greater social consciousness.
