N. Poppe, Introduction to Mongolian Comparative Studies (1955), is principally a comparative grammar but contains as well history and description of the various languages and a brief history of scholarship. Articles on the Mongolian languages and the family as a whole are found in Handbuch der Orientalistik, vol. 5, part 2, Mongolistik (1964), along with a brief history of scholarship. A comprehensive bibliography is H.G. Schwarz, Bibliotheca Mongolica, vol. 1, Works in English, French, and German (1978).
