The name escapes me for the moment (Compiler Construction ?) but the book by Goos and Waite isn't bad. Its published by Springer Verlag (in 1984 I think) and it covers the subjects that you want. If you ask for the tome that covers Books in Print at your local bookstore, I'm sure that you'll find it. The book is a little spotty for some people but if you want to use it as an adjunct to some other book like Aho and Ullman, then its not too bad.
