Miscellaneous References and Mentions

While our initial information about Oracle came from various goverment sources (GNIS, FIPS), we also found mention of Oracle in various books, maps and other sources.

We've created the following list to keep track of the sources that proved useful in adding to our knowledge about Oracle. We hope that they will be useful to you.

Note: Initially, we were careless about keeping track of where our Oracle data came from. The following list of references and mentions is incomplete.
