This collection of place names should appeal to those interested in the history and folklore of Missouri. Some names came about by mistake, others show the influence of immigrants, many are named for people or the wildlife found nearby. McMillen also advises readers pursuing their own collections.

Margot Ford McMillen teaches at Westminster College in Fulton, MIssouri, and also publishes an educational magazine called Our Missouri.
