Is there any comprehensive history of Tangut in English?

I'm not sure what you're asking. Do you mean the Tangut kingdom Xi Xia? There is some substantial coverage in F. W. Mote, Imperial China 800-1900 (Harvard University Press, 2000). There is also a chapter about Xi Xia (spelled Hsi Hsia) in the Cambridge History of China, volume 6.

If you mean the Tangut language, a book has just come out: Jinbo Shi, Tangut Language and Manuscripts: An Introduction (Brill, 2020).

For the early Tangut kingdom, there's Ruth W. Dunnell's The Great State of White and High: Buddhism and State Formation in Eleventh-Century Xia.
