Book Synopsis What Do You Call a Person From-- ? by : Paul Dickson
Book excerpt: Herein you can learn that people from Del Mar, California are Del Martians, that white residents of Zimbabwe are still called Rhodies, that Cestrian can refer to someone from either Cheshire or Chester (both in England), and that should anyone ever arrive from Venus, it has been decided to call them Cyntherians to avoid any sexual reference. Alphabetical listing of places, residents, and nicknames. Great fun, but not useful for research. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
