Less Beaten Paths of America: Unique Town Names

Have you ever wondered how places like Intercourse, Pennsylvania or Hell, Michigan got their names? So did David Kravetz. As he traveled across America's back roads, David visited these strangely named places, like Uncertain, Success, Nice, Santa Claus and Boring to present a firsthand look at dozens of small towns with unique and often funny names.While some travel books may mention these towns, the authors rarely, if ever visited them. That's what makes "Less Beaten Paths of America" more than just a travelogue. David has been to all of the places in this book, talked with the residents, ate the food, and writes of these places with the affection of a devoted family member, keeping one eye on the road, and the other on the details that make us unique.
