Library of Computer and Information
Sciences (LCIS) bookclub has a couple
of recent entries that may be of
interest to you:

Compiler Design in C
Allen I. Holub
Prentice Hall (published May 1990)
924 pages

"... Holub develops fully functional
versions of _lex_ and _yacc_, tools
available in the UNIX operating
system for writing compilers. ..."

Using C with Curses, Lex and Yacc
Axel T. Schreiner
Prentice Hall (published July 1990)
241 pages

"... building a line-oriented desk
calculator, with _awk_, _lex_, and
_yacc_, that serves as the command
languages of _wish_ and _cdc_..."

Sorry I can't give you any
recommendations other than telling
you they exist.  I've read neither.
Hope this helps.
