The English Dialect Dictionary by Joseph Wright

If ever there were a book to show just how varied dialects have been in England for the past several hundred years, this is it.

Historical German grammar, Vol. 1: Phonology,… by Joseph Wright

Detailed linguistic information on Old, Middle, and New High German. Not much for the common learner, though.

Any combiners should note that there was only one volume, so Historical German Grammar = Historical German Grammar Vol 1.
