As for that list, Smalltalk-80: the Language and its Implementation (the "blue book") is phenomenal. One of the co-authors is Adele Goldberg herself, and the last few chapters (26-30) contain the blueprint for a basic, canonical VM using Smalltalk itself as the implementation language (referred to as the "blue book VM").
I think The Art and Science of Smalltalk is quite good also, but outdated and VisualWorks-specific. The section on MVC is particularly interesting, especially if your understanding of it was shaped by RoR and other web frameworks.
