If you are doing this as a Uni assignment make sure you refer to the well known litrature as this is what they expect.  The main books I used in my grammar unit were:
 
Practical English Usage (3rd ed.) by Michael Swan 2005
Grammar for English Language Teachers by Martin Parrot 2000 
Learner English by Michael Swan 2001
 
You can cross reference to some course books and how they teach it.  Headway and Cutting Edge are are both very good and provide a basis for you to then adapt it to suit your students� needs.
 
I had to do a 3000 word essay on passive voice!  I�m an expert now.
