Hello everyone,

I found this book Programming the 65816: Including the 6502, 65C02, and 65802 created by WDC on Amazon. Is it worth buying? Has anyone the kindle version of this book. Often the kindle version is only scanned and images and tables are really hard to read.

With best regards,
Mario.

It's one we keep recommending here. I have not seen any other book so good. It has more helpful detail than any of the others. I have the paper version which I paid $50 for 20+ years ago (before most people had internet access and before most companies had websites), and I refer to it frequently. It has been well worth it.

Judging by the kindle preview, the presentation is fine, as good as an authored PDF, including the tables and diagrams.

This tome seems to be freely available, under an agreement with the original authors (Eyes and Lichty):

The PDF is good but you can't beat a paper copy when it comes to bookmarking key pages. I bought a copy from Amazon this year. Quite a weighty tome.

I'll echo the same... I bought the book when it first came out and it's been very useful. I also have the PDF version which I keep open when working on projects. Another book I would recommend is "6502 Assembly Language Subroutines" by Leventhal and Saville. It has many useful routines which can easily be adapted.
