   It's old, but take a look at "BCPL: The Language and its Compiler" by   
   Martin Richards and Colin Whitby-Strevens. It includes the listing and   
   description for the BCPL compiler front end (in BCPL of course). It's an   
   example of a hand-written recursive descent compiler with precedence   
   parsing for expressions.   
      
   I believe that makes it a parser for LL(1) language with LR(1)   
   expressions.
