City on the line : how Baltimore transformed its budget to beat the Great Recession and deliver outcomes / Andrew Kleine ; foreword by Peter Hutchinson.

"City on the Line is about a revolution in public budgeting. Equal parts memoir, manifesto, and manual, it tells the story of a hard luck city fighting through the Great Recession, a budget director trying to lead disruptive change, and a ground-breaking effort to link strategy, budget, and data to get better results for residents"--Back cover.
