Johnston's gazetteer of Scotland, including a glossary of the most common Gaelic names.
Johnston & Bacon.
Munro, R. W.(Robert William)
Edinburgh : Johnston & Bacon,
1973.
Many changes have taken place in Scotland over the past few decades, and an up to date work of reference is required by those who must keep pace with them. As public services are transformed, new industries replace the old, and familiar landmarks disappear, and new ones emerge. It is right that a Gazetteer should reflect those changes, as well as continuing to provide the general information for which it is indispensable. In this edition, about one tenth of the existing entries have been revised, and some 350 completely new items added.
A listing of Geelic names and where they originated.
