This review is from: Readings on Second Language Acquisition (Paperback)

This book has all of the classic papers for Second Language Acquisition. It's a really good literature review. you might be able to download all of the papers online for free (I'm not sure) but the commentary and organization is worth the nominal cost of the book, and you don't have to keep up with a bunch of loose papers.
