The book ``Threaded Interpretive Languages'' has a quite complete
implementation of a threaded version of Forth in Z80 assembler.  It's
a very complete description of why threaded implementations exist and
how to implement them easily.  It's by R. G. Loeliger and was
published by Byte Books (ISBN 0-07-038360-X).  It was published in
1981, though, and I'm sure it's long out of print.
