This is the fictionalized account of \"The Underground Economy,\" the 2016 book Bynum wrote that chronicled his observations about this fluid subset of Americans, where he reported on the issues surrounding their underclass status and did analysis regarding his observations on how individuals not fully integrated into our economy survive. These groups include the homeless, gang members, and undocumented immigrants. He took what he learned from the project and fictionalized it in \"No, It's Not A Shelter.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The story focuses on our heroine, Cynthia, and a somewhat odd relationship she forms with our other featured character, Vincent. They share a symbiotic relationship. The other characters represent Corporate America, complicated bad guys, and interested family members.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The theme of life for the disaffected is never far from the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnthony Bynum considers himself a study of life's hard knocks. In other words, he's tried a number of different things and hasn't always been successful. He tempers his ambitions with the importance of his family's survival. Based on this philosophy, he's been able to work two careers, the first in the insurance business working in the claims side of automobile accidents as adjuster, supervisor, and eventually field investigator. He also spent twenty years in the Maryland National Guard. He was able to serve with many fine men and women. This allowed him to travel to a number of different countries, but it mostly allowed him to travel to A. P. Hill in Virginia. Bynum has a tremendous love for his country, but at the time of his enlistment, his desire was economic survival. He needed the work. He recently began a new professional career in banking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Bynum and his wife of twenty-nine years, Lori, are fortunate to have two young adult sons, Anton and Andre, who are in the beginnings of their careers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Bynum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1645305783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781645305781\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dorrance Publishing Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.22d","brand":"Anthony Bynum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068117643519,"sku":"9781645305781","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dbfb4a27-0f54-4440-a3a9-460d05baa419.jpg?v=1685417134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/no-its-not-a-shelter-anthony-bynum-9781645305781","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
