Geographical etymology: a dictionary of place-names giving their derivations
Description
Blackie's gazeteer reveals how place-names encode forgotten histories—linguistic fossils that whisper of Celtic settlements, Norse invasions, and medieval monasteries embedded in modern geography. Each etymology is a miniature detective story, tracing how language itself becomes a map of human migration and cultural conquest.
