The VGA Attribute Controller Is Weird
I thought of his Black Book when reading about the VGA registers. He goes quite deep into how the VGA hardware works. Interesting to read, but I only read it around 2010. Would have been much more useful to have read in 1990.

John Carmack's Quake Worklogs
I am not sure I would consider much of what he did very simple (or easy) compared to what most of us are doing today. The last few chapters of Michael Abrash's Black Book is about his work with Quake (he was involved doing some of the graphics code together with Carmack) and it is pretty hardcore low-level advanced things they were doing that I think few of us today ever have to bother with. Remember they were software rendering everything in the first version.

And also they did pretty soon support MSDOS, Windows 95, and Linux (and possibly some more platforms?). In addition to supporting software rendering, 3Dfx, OpenGL, and possibly some more 3D standard API.
