Dear Eisel,
Welcome to the list and thanks for your interesting report. I have
never studied the Baalaavataaro but I know it to be an important text
belonging to the Kaccaayana school. It seems that the early 20th
century was a very good time for the publication of many Pali
grammars, most of which are now out of print.
The following is a new book that has been published recently and has a
section on grammar books:
Peter Skilling and Santi Pakdeekham
Pali and Vernacular Literature Transmitted in Central and Northern
Siam August, 2004. lxxxii + 474 pp., 16 figs.
ISBN 974-13-3150-9. (available from the Pali Text Society)
Best wishes,
Jim
