What do you consider the best English-language grammar book (not tutorial) of Esperanto?

Ivy Kellerman Reed's "Complete Grammar of Esperanto"?

David Jordan's "Being Colloquial in Esperanto"?

Something else?

I prefer Baker's The American Esperanto Book over Reed's. I find it better organized. From what I remember, Reed skips around from topic to topic giving you bits and pieces. Baker goes through everything about nouns, then moves on to adjectives, then verbs, etc. If you need a reference, it's a lot easier to find what you need this way.

I like the Jordan book. It's an interesting read even if your Esperanto is already good.
