Grails 2: A Quick-Start Guide
This book is a delight: a warm, smart introduction to the Grails framework,
illustrated by a friendly mentor over several iterations on a small project. It’s
pair-programming on the page. By the end of the ride, we’ve created an impressive
app, and we’re ready for deeper dives, with a wealth of resources provided.
Fabulous!

Dave and Ben have done it again. Grails 2: A Quick Start Guide is the best book
you could hand to a new Grails developer. It’s a great mix of instruction and
practice and just what you need to get started, or get better, with Grails.
