Thanks for that Luke! It really is interesting to consider the number of different, precisely-timed events that have to happen every second so these early sets worked.
If I can, I'd like to suggest one more book that might be interesting. I came across it a while back after a Google search for something turned up a passage from it. It was written later than Grob and the rest, and this guy has a different way of explaining things that allow them to sink in better than the other books, at least for me, likely because of more modern language. Coincidentally I was reading the chapter about video amplifier circuits, peaking coils, etc. just a few hours before I saw your post.
Anyway it's called Color Television Principles and Practice, by R. R. Gulati. Don't worry the book covers B&W in extreme detail before it even touches on color. I think it was originally a textbook used in India and the color stuff deals more with PAL than NTSC, but again the text is system-agnostic. Maybe it's a good resource to check out if you're stuck on something. You can buy it on Amazon
