Subject: Cowell Grammar recommendation?

Apologies for cross-posting.

I'm working on my doctoral thesis on codeswitching between Turkish and
Arabic (in Turkey). I'm considering buying a reference grammar on Syrian
varieties of Arabic, in particular Mark W. Cowell's 'A reference grammar
of Syrian Arabic' (1964) Georgetown Uni Press.
Would others recommend this, or an alternative? Unfortunately, cost
is a factor.
Thanks
