"The Effects of Nuclear Weapons"

That is an old one right from the Government Printing Office.

Has a few rule of thumb scaling laws that you can use to
get an estimate on how much damage a particular size warhead
will cause. You have to extrapolate from Hiroshima and Nagasaki
data given in the book.

I once used it to make some estimates on what would happen in case
of a thermonuclear attack on Los Angeles and found out why the
Russians liked multiple warheads instead of one big warhead.
