This 640-page hardback book gives information about a host of geographic places in South Dakota, starting with amphitheatres, badlands, bars, basins ... and ending with walls, water courses, and wells. As the editor notes: "Every given region carries in its place names some record of the people who from time to time have inhabited it." The book is in very good plus condition with a tight spine and binding. There is a moving gift dedication on the first paste-down page to a previous owner; it is signed by 13 colleagues, staff and students. Otherwise, the book is clear of extraneous writing, underlining or marks. The dust jacket is in good condition with small tears and wrinkling across the top edge.
