5.0 out of 5 stars "Bible" for study of celtic place-names in Scotland, February 14, 2000
By 
H. W. GOUGH-COOPER "herdsman" (Dunscore, Dumfries, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: History of the Celtic Placenames of Scotland (Paperback)
Although Watson's work is now over half-a-century old, it is still irreplacable as a starting point for the study of Scottish place-names. Scholars disagreeing with Watson still have to give very cogent reasons for doing so. Despite the regrettable exclusion of Scottish place-names of "teutonic" origin (Scandinavian, English, Anglo-Norman), this is an essential item for any etymologist with an interest in British place-name studies. In a word, a classic!
