It includes Josh Blau; I've been requesting his Hebrew grammar for a long time, but this covers much of the same ground.
It includes Pardee's Ugaritic grammar in English. When I took Ugaritic from him, the original French volumes had just appeared, and we had to use that. It's excellent. Pardee is one of the top US scholars of Ugaritic (Mark S. Smith being one of the others). He once wrote a review of Tropper's (German) grammar of Ugaritic that was longer than the grammar itself, 404 pages! The man knows Hebrew, Ugaritic and Semitic languages like you would not believe.

It includes Blaine Conklin's book on oath formulae. He also studied with Pardee, two years ahead of me. As I have an interest in curses, his dissertation (now published as this book) sits on my shelf.
Cynthia Miller, Ziony Zevit...Lots of good stuff here for deep digging into the structure and background of Hebrew, esp. diachronic shifts and Semitic background. I groused to my wife, "why do they start publishing so much stuff I like now that we no longer have the income to acquire it?!"...
Seriously, good package. Worth picking up.
