The second book is out.  I picked my copy up at the B. Daltons at
6th Avenue aand 8th Street in NY.  The nice part, it only cost 20
dollars.  The bad, it is a paperback, no hardcover.  At least not
in sight, or mentioned in the book.   Somme details:

344 pages with an index, and references after each "paper".

The book is a collection of papers that report on how several
different implementations of SmallTalk-80 have been done by the
following:

Tektronix, Hewlett-Packard, Xerox, Digital Equipment Corporation,
and the University Of California-Berkeley.

All in all, a well done book, especially if you are even remotely
thinking of implementing (and maybe using) SmallTalk-80.
