Reference Grammars (was: Doraja)

Matt Pearson scripsit:

> A very good recent reference grammar that I've been reading is "A
> Grammar of Lezgian" by Martin Haspelmath, published by Mouton de
> Gruyter (1993).  It's impeccably organised, impressively complete,
> and includes a variety of useful and unusual features, including a
> concordance of example sentences.  Most importantly, every single
> point in the grammar is illustrated with at least one--and in many
> cases several--example sentences, with full morpheme-by-morpheme
> glosses.
Ahem.  What about the Lojban reference grammar, which is even available
on the Web?

Also there is _Mandarin Chinese: A Functional Reference Grammar_ by
Li & Thompson, which was my explicit model.
