Languages of Vanuatu: A new survey and bibliography

John Lynch and Terry Crowley
PL 517

Vanuatu has more languages for its population size than any other
country in the world. Many of these are almost completely
undescribed, while differing amounts of information have been recorded
on (and in) other languages. This volume sets out to survey in the
linguistic geography of the entire country in the light of the most
recent documentation. It also provides intending and experienced
linguistic researchers, as well as the literacy and educational policy
practitioners, with an exhaustive up-to-date annotated bibliographical
listing for every language. 2001 ISBN 0 85883 469 3 xiv + 187 pp.
AUS $44.55 International $40.50
