1). _Programmer's Guide to PC & PS/2 Video Systems_ by Richard Wilton
    Microsoft Press

2). _Programmer's Guide to the EGA and VGA cards_ by Richard F. Ferraro

    Read the one by Wilton first to get a better overall understanding.
    The book by Ferraro is more detailed and harder to read (info is
    scattered everywhere).  However, it has a lot of information in
    very good detail.
