Assembly Language Programming

Two good books on assembly language programming are Jeff Duntemann’s “Assembly Language Step-by-Step” (Wiley) and Randall Hyde’s “The Art of Assembly Language” (No Starch Press). Both are thick books that cover the 8086 instruction set from AAA to XOR.

Duntemann’s style is breezy and very easy to read. Hyde style is dry and his book uses “High-Level Assembly” (HLA), a programming language with a somewhat Pascal-like syntax, control structures and a standard library as a scaffolding to teach assembly language programming.
