If you just want to teach assembly (assuming this includes the datapath/control units, the CPU pipeline, hazards, etc) today, you can't go wrong with Patterson and Hennessy's Computer Organisation and Design. Pick your version: MIPS[1], ARM[2], or RISC-V[3].
There's really no need to delve into hardware when teaching assembly, as software simulators/interpreters exist; there's QtSPIM[4], a LEGv8 simulator from ARM itself[5], and a RISC-V interpreter by Cornell[6].
