You can go to Waldenbooks and purchase the three-volume ROM Kernel Manual, which is _Includes_and_Autodocs_ (a description of every routine built into the ROM Kernel), _Libraries_and_Devices_ (a narrative about the the internal workings of the Amiga's software heart), and _Hardware_Reference_Manual_ (which is for "Assembly language programmers who need a more direct way of interfacing with the system than the routines described in [the other two manuals], designers who want to interface with new peripherals to the Amiga [sic], and anyone who wants to know how the Amiga hardware works." It sounds like you might be interested exclusively in the last volume. Note that the manuals list at about $25 each; for an additional $75 you can register as an Amiga developer and gets lots and lots of additional documentation straight from Commodore.
