To date, this book is the only record and firsthand account of the religious cult that existed in North Canterbury, New Zealand, from the early 1970s to the late 1990s. Known as "Camp David Christian Cooperative Community" or "The God Squad," the property was a prominent landmark. Its block-walled castellations, and turrets from which heraldic flags and banners were flown provided the passerby with quite a spectacular view. A carefully cultivated religious fa ade was presented to the public, one which many members themselves believed was genuine. The close-knit community existed side by side with locals within the Amberley and Waipara townships, and other areas further afield. However, the community disintegrated amidst revelations of sexual deviancy and impropriety by the man who had been the founder and spiritual leader of the cult. Now, the author gives the reader an inside glimpse into her life within those walls, and the invisible prison bars which kept her there, up until the death of the founder, Douglas Alexander Metcalf. True to its title, "The Counterfeit Coin "reveals both the positive aspects of the Community, along with the flipside, so carefully concealed from both members and the general public.

Whom should Cissy Nidd believe? Her father, maker of counterfeit coins? Or John Bunyan, the prisoner in her father's jail who dares to speak of worshiping God in spirit and in truth? As Cissy endures the horrors of plague and the Great Fire of London, she learns the difference between deceit and righteousness, between the false and the true. But the moment comes when she is faced with a heart-wrenching choice, and like Bunyan himself, she must prove the faithfulness of God. Book jacket.

The Counterfeit Coin argues that games and related entertainment media have become almost inseparable from fantasy. In turn, these media are making fantasy itself visible in new ways. Though apparently asocial and egocentric—an internal mental image expressing the fulfillment of some wish—fantasy has become a key term in social contestations of the emerging medium. At issue is whose fantasies are catered to, who feels powerful and gets their way, and who is left out. This book seeks to undo the monolith of commercial gaming by locating multiplicity and difference within fantasy itself. It introduces and tracks three broad fantasy traditions that dynamically connect apparently distinct strata of a game (story and play), that join games to other media, and that encircle players in pleasurable loops as they follow these connections.

Harley J. Spiller began collecting money at the age of five when, home sick from school, his father tossed him a sack of pennies and a Whitman coin folder. In the five decades since, author Spiller has amassed one of America's most extensive collections of unusual financial artifacts as well as a wealth of anecdotes and quirky historical details about U.S. currency. In Keep the Change, Spiller takes an irreverent look at our most uncommon coins and bills. Readers learn why greenbacks are green; what happens to worn-out bills (compost is involved); how artists navigate the fine line between art and mutilation; whether it's ever acceptable to burn money (short answer: maybe); and how coin clippers and counterfeiters through the ages have profited by manipulating money. This highly selective tour through currency legends and lore will inspire readers to look with a new sense of wonder at the bills that pass through our hands every day.
