FYI:
It looks like the University of Alaska Fairbanks has put The Dictionary of Alaska Place Names online in pdf form.
Per the webpage:
"This is a PDF version of the publication by Donald J. Orth published as Geological Survey Professional Paper 567, 1967, reprinted in 1971"

This is the "Big Book" of Alaskan Place Names (1,092 pages). The original hard copy edition is out of print and original editions are costing several hundred dollars. A feast of Alaskan historical information.
Toponym Freaks rejoice!
