Here are some Metallurgy lectures presented by Professor H. K. D. H. Bhadeshia at the University of Cambridge:

The YouTube videos also have links to some of the class materials.

I haven't watched them yet, but just posting here in case any of you are interested.

Check out this sample microscope video of steel undergoing martenistic transformation:

P.S. I'm planning to watch these, and read a few tutorials about metallurgy, such as Verhoeven's book on metallurgy for blacksmiths and knifemakers. For now, I've been reading elementary books on strength of materials by J. E. Gordon as a warm-up.
 
Thom Brogan (of www.hypefreeblades.com) pointed out that several technical books on metallurgy can be downloaded (including Prof. Bhadeshia's book on Bainite):

And I found one on Martensite, although it is a book of conference proceedings:
Proceedings of the International Conference on Martensitic Transformaions. ICOMAT 1979
http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/phase-trans/2009/ICOMAT79/ICOMAT79.html
"Covers all aspects of martensitic transformations. Some highly informative reviews and many original papers."

And since I can't resist, some more microscope videos, and one educational simulation video:

Microscope video of cast iron being machined:

In the video you can seen the metal break apart, mostly along the veins of graphite (dark regions). If I understand correctly, these veins of graphite help cast iron be more machinable (along with other properties of cast iron). Robert C (of www.hypefreeblades.com) points out that the graphite flakes in cast iron make it brittle.

"This old movie shows a magnified (~100x) moving image of machining steel with a zero lead angle about a +30° rake angle and about 5° relief (clearance) angle and formation of a BUE (Built up edge). It also has a cartoon showing how the BUE formation damages the finished machine surface."

And a educational tutorial that simulates grains and dislocations using solder-balls between two glass plates, which are "annealed" by vibrations from an ultrasonic speaker:
