A must for any namedropper! If you need to know where you are in relation to somewhere else, this is the series for you. The books are more than gazetteers: each place-name entry includes the distance from the nearest well-known populated place as well as the origin, meaning and location of the geographical name. The third in the most complete and current series about Alberta's toponymy, Volume III reveals the fascinating history and unique cultural heritage of central Alberta. There are full colour photographs in each volume. Among the geographical names are many that pay tribute to the individuals and groups who contributed so much of their lives to a variety of enterprises that have made Alberta what it is today.
Tracey Harrison, former executive director of the Friends of Geographical Names of Alberta Society, has been a toponymic researcher with the Geographical Names Program, Historic Sites and Archives Service, Alberta Community Development, since 1986.
