This book is almost a toponymic atlas of the world, which Isaac Asimov turned out to be a collection of entertaining stories. You will find out why Australia carries the word south, and Austria - east, and how the name New Jersey could hide an English king, and the name Philadelphia could hide an Egyptian pharaoh. Many places on earth were named after gods, saints, kings and presidents, politicians, warriors and important events. The past will reveal to you the wonders and magic of the language of distant eras.
