An excellent book that attempts to fill this very gap is 
"The C Companion."  (Sorry - can not remember author.  Was it Holub?)
In the introduction it says its purpose is to supply information
on topics that are assumed to be too advanced for beginners, or
else already known by professionals.  There are chapters on topics
such as assembly language priciples, memory addressing, pointer
concepts, numeric representation, etc.

I think it complements any C tutorial or class very well.
