520 1 $a"A placename may bespeak the history of a nation, the culture of a people, or the hopes of an individual. Such connections are revealed in this work on placenames of the world. First published in 1997, the work in this new edition contains more than 6,600 entries covering natural features as well as manmade entities such as cities and countries. Each entry includes a brief description, the geographical location, and the origin of the name." "Appendices give the meanings of common elements of non-English placenames; major placenames in European languages; and transcribed Chinese-language equivalents for the names of the world's countries and capitals."--BOOK JACKET.
