I second "On Lisp". I also liked skimming through "DSLs in Action", a Manning publications book. There's also Bill Clementson's video on creating DSLs in Lisp here : http://bc.tech.coop/blog/050711.html And lastly, Stuart Halloway in his book, "Programming Clojure" creates a build system DSL in Clojure (called Lancet) as one of the main recurring themes to learn the language and build something concrete by the end of it.

"Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs" (http://goo.gl/cYMn) poses as a textbook on introductory programming, but the approach taken is full of DSLs, especially in later chapters.

I would say that Martin Fowler's book "Domain Specific Languages" should be a great place to start. I haven't read the book yet, but based on my experience from the other books he has authored and the site he maintained before publishing the book (content is now offline), it will become the "standard" on DSL. Here is the book on Amazon: http://amzn.to/cIwc7Y

"DSLs in Action" is a reasonable book on the topic. http://www.manning.com/ghosh/
