A possibility could be to read the following websites or books
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/eintr.pdf
Christian Queinnec's book *Lisp In Small Pieces
*https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9781139172974
(I read the original French version, /Principes d'implantation de Scheme
et Lisp/, ISBN 978-2-916466-03-3)
If you need more theory about compilation of Lisp and ML like languages,
read Appel's book on /Compiling with Continuations/.
Of course I recommend downloading the latest GNU emacs snapshot source
tarball and compiling it. I am doing so every day!
NB: my pet open source project is the RefPerSys inference engine on
https://github.com/RefPerSys/RefPerSys/ and http://refpersys.org/
