Description:Excerpt from Place-Names of Scotland Our treatment of the subject will be historic, pro ceeding strictly in order of time. The first chapter will refer to all we know of the aborigines of Britain - call them Iberians, Ivernians, Silurians, or what you please - and then will rapidly discuss the largest and most complicated portion of our task - the Celtic names. Then purely English or anglo-saxon, Scandinavian, and Norman names will each receive a chapter; and with the Norman we will treat the Roman names, a group too insignificant to call for separate handling. Purely modern names will be dealt with last of all; and, as ecclesiastical names form so large and important a group, they will receive a chapter to themselves. The study will be no mere dilettante tri ing. The historian, the philologist, the antiquarian. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
