There are two good sources of information on the IBM EGA card.

1 - The "Options and Adapters Technical Reference" manual.  This manual
is very expensive, $125 US, but contains hardware descriptions of all of
the PC peripherals that IBM sells.  The copy you buy will probably not
have the section on the EGA, but there is a card to send in and they will
send you updates that include it.  The section on the EGA looks like it
was typeset and proofread by somebody who didn't speak any English, but it
will do.  It includes a listing of the EGA's BIOS.

2 - The IBM Personal Computer Seminar Proceedings, volume 2, number 11.
This is a series published for PC software developers and their ilk.  You
can write to IBM PC Seminar Proceedings, 4629, PO Box 1328, Boca Raton FL
33432 and they'll send it, or you can try calling +1 305 998 2000 and be
put on hold for a long time.
