Mapping the Atari

Mapping the Atari, written by Ian Chadwick and published by COMPUTE! Publications in 1983, is a location-by-location explanation of the memory layout of the Atari 8-bit family of home computers. The introduction is by Optimized Systems Software co-founder Bill Wilkinson.
The book covers the 64K address space of the system's 6502 processor from low to high, including addresses used by the operating system or mapped to hardware registers, as well as how to use them. For example, location 756 (2F4) codice_1 contains the starting memory address that tells ANTIC where to find the character set. The author explains how to use this feature to build custom character sets.
An updated version covering changes to the operating system and newer machines like the 130XE followed in 1985. "Antic" magazine serialized the book in 1989 and 1990.
