Not exactly a book but I've been using www.6502.org as a reference for my Lynx project.

Why buy any books? 6502 books can be hard to find in the wild.

Here are links to the complete texts of four 6502 asm programming books. The focus of the books is on the 8-bit computers, but the processor is the same so you can learn the basics of the instruction set and addressing.
