I would personally recommend the Kaccaayanabyaakara.na as a good one
to start with. It's the oldest extant Pali grammar and there are
quite a few commenataries written on it. The Saddaniiti is also very
good (the one that Warder refers to as his authority) and H. Smith's
edition does often come in handy as a reference manual. I hope to
continue on with the Kaccayana studies on my mailing list. I just
need to get back into it. :)

Best wishes,
Jim
