Arizona Geographic Names and Locations

Description

Will Croft Barnes spent more than thirty years tracking down the origins of Arizona place names, talking to “old timers, Indians, Mexicans, cowboys, sheepherders, historians, any and everybody who had a story to tell.” The result is a book chock full of oddments, humor, and lore — one that “every man, woman, and child who sets foot in the Grand Canyon State should have at hand.”
