Good book on linkers (though a bit dated, and definitely over-priced - worth buying S/H): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Linkers-Kaufmann-Software-Engineeri...

Not free, but an excellent book along the same lines, is John Levine's "Linkers and Loaders":
http://www.amazon.com/Linkers-Kaufmann-Software-Engineering-...
He's been the moderator of comp.compilers since 1986, so he's got a lot of practical Q&A experience to draw on.

I can't comment on its "goodness" but the textbook that sprang to mind is Linkers and Loaders: http://www.amazon.com/Linkers-Kaufmann-Software-Engineering-...
The bad news is that it's from '99 but, as far as the foundations go, I can't imagine linkers back then were that different.

The fundamental book to read would be "Introduction to Automata Theory, Languages, and Computation" (
http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Automata-Theory-Languages...)
Then proceed to Dragonbook.
After finishing Dragonbook, you might like this Linkers and loaders (http://www.amazon.com/Linkers-Kaufmann-Software-Engineering-...)
In general follow this guy Jeff Ullman and you would be good(http://infolab.stanford.edu/~ullman/)
