Title: Chinese Camp?? Now where did that name come from??
Product review: If you are touring in California and have the least bit of curiosity about the areas that you ride or drive through, you need this book! Fits nicely in glove box, tail trunk or pocket and is mighty nice to have. California's rich history leaves a legacy in its place names and their stories range from the fascinating to ho-hum, but it's a start if you are interested. I don't drive in the Sierras without a copy and it's a fun companion if you need something to read for a few minutes in Saint's Rest!The descriptions are usually brief, though some are several paragraphs long; there is a reference companion volume available here at Amazon.com: California Place Names: The Origin and Etymology of Current Geographical Names, 40th Anniversary Edition. This work is available in both Hardbound and Softbound format.
