Look into Sihler's "Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin", a regular mathomhouse for both of those languages, plus a lot of information on PIE and give lots of nice examples in other old IE languages. Of course, Allen and Greenough's "New Latin Grammar" and Gildersleeves "Latin Grammar" are also good, if older. But then, how much can CL possible change in a century!? :) Persoally, I prefer A&G over G, and S over both of the others. Sihler has the 100% annoying habit of not bothering to make an index for his book. A very Bad Thing in an otherwise excellent resource.
