I am looking for a book on appletalk that is not of the "you too can do
desktop publishing with both macs and PCs" genre.  (BYTE ran a fairly
good article on appletalk some 6+ months ago which was a good start.)

Our operation uses X.25 for our WAN and some NETBIOS over RS-422
(convergent) so we aren't absolute novices to netting, but it seems
that nuts and bolts level appletalk info is not readily available.

I'd really like something on the protocol specs, programming interfaces
(not necessarily too heavy here), and info on third party devices, drivers
etc. We've only got five or six macs so it isn't a big deal, yet.

  Thanks much-
