How do you pronounce names such as Huger, Legare, Mellichamp, and Abbeville? Unless you are a native of the state, chances are that you will not pronounce them like the people who live there. Here is a highly entertaining, witty guide to the right way of saying a large number of names.'Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle 'A fascinating collection of Palmetto State placenames, people, and events. In one sense, it might be described as a generalized genealogy, but it also serves as an entertaining accumulation of South Carolina history, geography, religion, culture, economy, and humor.'Southern Partisan 'All of this sort of thing, of course, could come off in less skilled hands as merely ponderous or pedantic.
