It is a detailed, alphabetically arranged enyclopedic dictionary of places. It includes coverage of all cities and towns having populations of over 25,000. But the Cambridge Gazetteer is far more than a dictionary of populated places. It contains thousands of entries describing waterways and mountain ranges, parks and historic sites and major urban neighbourhoods. It captures the grand sweep of modern America. Throughout, the book is informed with a sense of the history of each place described and prominent people associated with particular places are described within the appropriate entries. The role of ethnic and minority groups is given significant attention.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introduction and guide to using the Gazetteer\u003cbr\u003e List of glossary entries\u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e The Cambridge Gazetteer of the United States and Canada\u003cbr\u003e Maps.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Place names \u0026amp; gazetteers [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Place names \u0026amp; gazetteers\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Place%20names%20\u0026amp;%20gazetteers%20%5BGBGP%5D%22\"\u003eGBGP\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005141274904,"sku":"9781107402577","price":42.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107402577i_575992ae-0e47-4e20-83a6-d382f5be9eac.jpg?v=1694484844","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-cambridge-gazetteer-of-the-usa-and-canada-a-dictionary-of-places-paperback-9781107402577","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
