I must agree with Craig. I am self-taught and have used both printed
grammars and the Parsonj's program. IMO books are much more useful. I
have used Machen, Wenham, Dobson, Summers and Mounce. I like Mounce,
especially since it is tied in to a series of other books (graded reader,
morphology text, intermediate grammar, vocabulary guide).
