Whilst searching for history info for a project I stumbled over a pretty comprehensive archive of Byte magazine issues, running from the very first (september 1975, so 49 years ago!) up to mid 1994 (30 years ago!). This is the biggest collection I've seen for Byte issues where things seem complete. Archive.org has a lot but it seems very disorganised.
There is, of course, the epic August 1981 issue - https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Byte/80s/Byte-1981-08.pdf
And the ten years later review issue - https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Byte/90s/1991/Byte-1991-08.pdf
And somewhere in there, in an issue I can't remember, there is a review by Dick Pountain (who was a very widely known UK industry journo for many years) of the Acorn RISC OS productised version of Eliot's BrouHaHa vm. And probably some mentions from the same writer of the Active Book.
