Hardcover. Book Condition: Fine. Jacket Condition: Near Fine. English Place-Name Society, Nottingham, UK 1997. First Edition. 1st Printing. xxiii + 391 pages. With 1 fold-up map. Nice Firm Clean copy ! Size: 8vo. Toponymic reference works-scholarly volumes dedicated to investigating the origins, meanings, linguistic roots, and historical evolution of geographical names in a specific county or region. Rather than reading like traditional narrative histories, these books function as specialized encyclopedias or gazetteers. They systematically analyze the names of towns, villages, hamlets, rivers, hills, field names, and street names. Etymology & Word Origins: They break down names into their root languages - primarily Old English, Old Norse (Viking), Brythonic Celtic, Latin (Roman), or Anglo-Norman-to reveal what a name originally meant. Historical Spelling Chronologies: They trace how a place name was written across centuries, citing early historical documents like the Domesday Book (1086), Anglo-Saxon charters, medieval court rolls, and parish registers. Settlement & Landscape Clues: They detail what the landscape looked like when humans first named it, identifying ancient vegetation, river crossings, marshes, clearing types, or the specific chieftain/landowner who held the area. Cultural & Demographic Patterns: They map out historical migrations and invasions based on regional naming conventions. 5895.…
