Reseña del libro "Hometown Revelations: State by State (en Inglés)"
Have you ever been traveling and noticed the next town ahead has a funny, strange or interesting name?Hometown Revelations is the most comprehensive book you will find on place names in the United States. Virtually every major city is included in this book along with the unique ones. From Chicken, Alaska to Ten Sleep, Wyoming, there is a very good chance your community is revealed. In addition, you will find out how your state acquired its name. Included are some of the monikers these hometowns boast today. You may find the "Largest Catsup Bottle", the home of Superman or the "World Capital of Spinach" is just ahead! Hometown Revelations is a great road companion when traveling to your next destination.What are the 12 principle naming conventions? The first section in this book will explain the reasoning of how you hometown and state acquired their names. You will find how your ancestors used one or a combination of these principles to name your community and state. Not everybody's hometown may be included but the clues and mysteries revealed of other communities may lead you to your own revelation.Did you know?There are a lot of people that call their hometown New York City. But there are also people who live in Defiance, Bliss, Hell, and Paradise! Some of our hometowns sound like dangerous places to live. There are people who live in Savage, Hazard, Tombstone, and Burnt Corn. There are hometowns that appear to be in the wrong locations. Why is Kansas City in Missouri and Paris in Tennessee? Are there Buffalo in New York? A few of us from Georgia live in Between. There are a lot of hometowns with great sounding names. How would you like to live in Niceville, Welcome, Friend, or Happy? But you may not be sure about living in a place called Truth or Consequences.The most important fact to remember is that all of these hometowns are great places. Especially, when all of our hometowns are in America!
