I have a copy of an great-but-ancient book called "Functional Programming: Application and Implementation" (Peter Henderson, edited by CAR Hoare).
If you're interested in this implementation, you'll find that book very interesting, and quite similar I think (based on reading the link).
(The book has a now-amusing appendix too where it lists the "object" code for the compiler in sexp-syntax, presuming that you'd have no other way to bootstrap other than typing that in :)
