Took $217.00 from me and failed to publish my book

I paid the Booklocker.com $217.00 to publish my Fathers book HIGH & AWAY "12 miles high & 20 Miles away' The story of the cameras in the U-2 Spyplane. The book was never published and my money was not refunded because of a copyright dispute over the cover I submitted.

The cover was a photo of a U-2 in flight given to my father by Kelly Johnson of the Lockheed skunks works. Angela Hoy of the Booklocker insisted that I track down the person who photographed the U-2 and get permission to use the photo. I explained to her that it is a government photo and that anything the government creates cannot be copyrighted. She still insisted that I track down the photographer. Does she really think that a freelance photographer in a Cessna 150 snapped a photo of the U-2 at 30,000 feet? I decided I had the wrong publisher, asked for my money back, and was refused.
