AKA "The Dragon Book". You're not the only one to mention this book on
this list.

IMO, this book is really thick to crawl through, and in the end, it's
all just theory, you still won't be able to build a compiler, or an
optimizer in case you already have a compiler. Heh. In short: are there
any more *practical* "how do I build my own compiler" books, that people
can wholeheartedly recommend?
