It may be showing its age, but I think that "Crafting A Compiler in C"
by Fischer and LeBlanc is worth looking at. The original "Crafting
A Compiler" was written in the late 80s when Ada was going to conquer the
world and was also pushing compiler technology. Circa 1991 I translated
the Ada code and pseudo-code into C for the C version of the book. Once
I did that I finally understood how LR parsers work. :-)


(How did I get to do the work? I did my MS work under Rich LeBlanc at
Georgia Tech and had stayed in touch. :-)
