Certain editions have better versions.In regard to the Forgotten Realms, most people seem to agree that the 3.0 Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Guide is probably one of the best sources for an overall setting book. About a few weeks ago I snagged a near mint copy (with the map) online for like 60 bucks after tax.If you want Necromancer lore and stuff: The Complete Book of Necromancy is a fantastic source that shows how the School of Necromancy can have different forms of branches via White/Grey/Black. (Basically Good/Neutral/Bad). It's also pretty neat that it goes over some concepts like the Necromancer who digs up bodies to practice their knowledge of how to operate on bodies and what not if they are surgeon.For Barbarians and Uthagardt clan options and Orc Tribes, The Savage Frontier for 1E seems to list a lot. I don't know if The North: Guide to the Savage Frontier would be a better option though. (anybody feel free to jump in with the answer).The Raven Queen has a better lore origin and stuff in 4E, but there are some neat things from the 5E Raven Queen that you can just combine with the previous lore. And I think it's better like that. (humblest of opinions).For Aberrations, Lords of Madness is pretty good and is my fave choice.Harpers have The Code of The Harpers for everything related for that faction.Dragons would have to be the 3.0 Dragonomicon combined with elements from Dragons of Faerun and 4E's versions.I've heard a lot of people like Dwarves Deep for Dwarven stuff. Apparently, it also has a Dethlek alphabet in it? I like Complete Book of the Elves just for the Bladesinger.Everybody swears for Ravensloft and Spelljammer, their OG 2E material is the superior route.</blockquote>
