It would be nice to have a one-stop resource thread just for Cæsar's De Bello Gallico.
Here are some of the resources I use, and if anyone has others, please post them here:
This online text has latin on the left side and the english translation, as well as a seperate grammar help, on the right side. (Please note that the reader MUST be in chapter mode and NOT section mode in order to use the side-by-side latin/english functionality). The words are clickable and linked directly to the Perseus dictionary—quite a convience!

This is the complete latin text as well as notes for dechipering its grammar and understanding the book. There are illustrations, maps, explanations, lists...; it's the most complete I've found so far and is the exact same text and grammar help as in the link above. I have a paper version of this book and find it handy:

* This link apropriately brings you to the page where the grammar help begins (Book I, Chapter I.)
The book linked above (Cæsar's De Bello Gallico: Allan & Greenough's Edition) gives hundreds of references which can easily be found in this book.
Here is an example of the text on the first page of the book posted above.
The first link, that is, § 495 (the other links are in reference to different grammar books) is the one you would flip to in the book. You would see:

This grammar book is easily among the best grammar references available for latin and can be used as a grammar reference for any ancient latin texts. It gives true ancient latin examples for every rule. This book is available in paper format as well and is higly recommended.
The book can be downloaed free in pdf or bought in paper form. Since it is print-on-demand it's always being updated.
The advantage of this book is the facing vocab and notes; there is no need to flip back and forth as in other books—makes vocab preperation much easier too!
