Paris, Tightwad, and Peculiar by Margot Ford McMillen, 93 pages


My husband had checked this book out and I thought it looked interesting. It's a relatively short read, giving the background for some of the more odd place names in Missouri. I had always thought Versailles and Paris, MO, were named after France, but no, they're actually named after towns in Kentucky. This wasn't an indepth read or totally engrossing, but if you want to learn some interesting tidbits in an afternoon, this is a good book for that.
