A couple of years ago, I stumbled upon a discounted Microsloth^H^H^H^H^Hsoft
Press book called IBM ROM BIOS, by Ray Duncan.  (It's part of the Programmer's
Quick Reference Series.)  ISBN 1-55615-135-7.  Anyway, it has a brief summary
of every standard documented ROM BIOS interrupt call (AFAIK), about 128 small
pages in all; nevertheless, it's pretty detailed.  You also might try Ralf
Brown's famous interrupt list (inter##[a-d].zip); I haven't actually looked at
it, but I've seen it recommended a lot.
