Rich Stevens used raw pic for all his books.  He posted some interesting
examples of how he used it at <http://www.kohala.com/start/troff/troff.html>
along with the pic macros that he used.

In addition to the excellent groff pic manual that Eric Raymond wrote,
you might also want to look at the chapter on pic in _Unix Text Processing_.
You can find (the recreated) UTP at <http://www.alltel.net/~kollar/utp/>.
