Basic German: A Grammar and Workbook by H. Schenke.
It’s short. Too short. Too few exercises and only covers material up to A2+ or so. But at only 200 pages, it’s so ridiculously short!!! One of the fastest reads you can do on this subject.
As long as you use this book as an auxiliary, it’s great. It’s not a primary lesson material, it’s to help explain other books / other lessons.
There are 1000+ page comprehensive grammar books. But beginners shouldn’t use those. Instead, using a purposefully short book that covers wide all the basics is best for a beginner IMO.
