Now you hit me with TMG! I'm definitely going to look for these books!

I recommend to You articles from Bell System Technical Journal, v57: i6 July-August 1978; they all can be download on this
site.
Especially the text that was firstly published in 1974 in Communications of the ACM, and then reprinted with upgrades in BSTJ 1978, The UNIX Time-sharing System, by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie.
Also Greg Lehey, on his website published classic Lions book,
Commentary on Unix 6'th Edition with Source Code. [the source code of V 6 Unix is on
different site.
Salute.
