Visit 100 US places with crazy names, from Alabama to Wyoming and from Accident in Maryland to Zzyzx in California via Where’s My Large Intestine? (it’s in Texas), Tightwad, Why (and Whynot), Dismal, Boring, Ding Dong, Looneyville, Idiotville, Monkey’s Eyebrow, Peculiar, Hell, Satan’s Kingdom, Rabbit Shuffle, Hooker, and Intercourse (it’s in Pennsylvania).

Award-winning travel writer Mike Gerrard discovers 100 places in the USA which have unusual names, and in this unconventional travel guide tells you not only how places got their name, but also what they’re like, and what else to do if you visit (other than take a selfie in front of the name).

Mike has written or contributed to over 40 travel guides for publishers including National Geographic, AAA, Michelin, DK, Thomas Cook, Insight, and many more, but this one is the first that combines his love of travel and his love of language, not to mention road trips and US roadside attractions. He’ll drive well out of his way to see a Stonehenge made out of junk cars, or the Museum of the Weird (in Austin).

Mike also publishes a website devoted to one of the greatest drives in North America, the Pacific Coast Highway, and has written travel pieces for newspapers, magazines, and websites worldwide.
