I found Peter Norton's Assembly Language Book for the IBM PC to be a great 
place to begin.  It starts out by having you write some short routines in 
DEBUG, so it gives you a very good feel of what goes on the insides.  
Halfway thru it starts talking about assemblers and you follow them step by 
step as they build a disk sector editor in assembly language.  It's a pretty 
good book -- I recommend it.
