Ha ! I'll top that with a "Pascal Implementation: The P4 Compiler" two (slim) volume set - one of the source code to the Pascal P4 compiler and interpreter (written in Pascal, of course !) and the other a discussion of that source.
I'm sure I remember a professor explaining that Pascal's text file handling was like *that* so that it was possible/easy to write Pascal compilers in Pascal, and that the first compiler for the CDC was compiled by printing out two sets of the source code, laying them on the floor side by side and manually running one with the other as input ...
