I just recently came across CORDIC in a fun read I just finished, 'Empire of the Sum', by Keith Houston. It's a history of calculators, and there's a chapter on the HP-35 which used CORDIC. The author goes into some details how it was used by that constrained device.

There are a lot of references given in the book including more details on CORDIC.
