I was doing a book search, and ran across this:
Compiler techniques, by Bary W. Pollack, 1972.

However, I have not been able to find a description of this book.
Since it is pretty old, I'm curious about the state of Compiler writing
in 1972.  Can anyone supply some information regarding this book?

Thanks!
[Never heard of it.  But you can buy a used copy for $4 on Amazon
so why not just get one and see if it's any good? -John]
