Native American Placenames of the Southwest - William Bright - Bog

Written by distinguished linguist William Bright, the handbook is organized alphabetically, and its entries for places--including towns, cities, counties, parks, and geographic landmarks--are concise and easy to read. Entries give the state and county, along with all available information on pronunciation, the name of the language from which the name derives, the name's literal meaning, and relevant history. In their introduction to the handbook, editors Alice Anderton and Sean O'Neill provide easy-to-understand pronunciation keys for English and Native languages.
