盐源县地名录 (Yanyuan Xian di ming lu)
A place name directory for Yanyuan county, in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan province, China. The book begins with a "Brief Account of Yanyuan County," a narrative summary of the County's historical development, natural conditions, economic overview, culture/education/health, and scenic spots and historical sites. There is a section on "Administrative Divisions and Natural Villages." This section goes through each district (with a narrative summary) and then each district's townships (with a narrative summary) one by one. After each township summary there is a list of names (in Chinese, and often Yi also) for the township, its villages, and its natural villages. Finally, there are several sections of narrative summary and listings of features, such as natural geography (mountains, rivers, etc.), scenic and historic sites, and so forth. At the back is an index of place names. (Michael Ryan 2006-04-03, revised by Ben Deitle 2009-07-16)
