[comp.lang.fortran] need a good reference book on Fortran77

Hello!

Can someone on this newsgroup recommend a good reference book on
Fortran77 ?  I do most of my programming in C. But once in a while, 
I have to modify some Fortran programs, or write Fotran programs
from scratch. I don't need a book full of programming examples. 
What I need is a book that talks about the syntax of the language,
and preferably has an appendix containing the syntax of Fortran77
statements in BNF notation. I would also like to see a listing of
all the Fortran77 intrinsic functions. I recently came across one
such book -- "Fortran 77," Harry Katzan, Jr., Van Norstrand Reinhold.
However, This book was written in 1978. Does someone know of anything
more recent.

I don't read this newsgroup. Therefore, please email your responses. 
I will summarize on the net if there is enough interest.

Thanks,
