There are at least two books about it - the original Blue Book and  
the "New Blue Book":

"Smalltalk-80: The Language and its Implementation" by Adele Goldberg  
and David Robson

The VM chapters from this book are online at

"Squeak: Open Personal Computing for Multimedia" by Mark Guzdial and  
Kimberly Rose (eds.)

draft chapters of this book are at
