Most of the companies that produced books on the Atari ST have either
gone out of business or have dropped their Atari line.  One significant
exception is the book Mickey Boyd mentioned.  It's title is:
"The Atari ST Book" by Ralph Turner, and it covers everything you wish
Atari had told you about the ST.
 
It's available from the publisher, Index Legalis at (515) 472-2293 and
costs $16.95 plus shipping.
 
Also available is an intermediate and advanced book, "Atari ST Subjects"
at the same price.
