There is the "Handbook of Programming Languages", which is a four
volume set edited by Peter Salus.
Chapters are written by different people, but they are written as
chapters, not journal articles or conference papers.
(Though at some point there is overlap between them.)
The four volumes are:
I. Object-Oriented Programming Languages
II. Imperative Programming Languages
III. Little Languages and Tools
IV. Functional and Logic Programming Languages
This is from about 1998, which you might take into account, depending
on your idea of history.
They might be available used for low prices, depending on how many
people read this and rush out to buy them.
