Varieties of English
The Handbook is by far the most thorough reference work on phonology and the first-ever comprehensive overview of the morphology and syntax of varieties of English in the world. The genuine speech samples and interactive maps of the online version not only supplement the printed articles by offering lively illustrations of the varieties of English around the world, but the material offered can also be used for linguistic research.

This does not look like a traditional encyclopedia since much of the information is in outline form. However, it does provide lengthy overviews on each of the world's major languages, including the language's evolution, the population who speaks it, and something of its geographic distribution. Linguists and other researchers will appreciate the uniform entries on all aspects of the language's script, phonology, morphology and syntax. There is an appendix of scripts in volume 2, as well as a lengthy bibliography.
