I am looking for a basic reference for Jacobians of algebraic curves in characteristic $p>0$. I just want basic facts about the relation between the curve and its Jacobian.

I dont want to assume familiarity with the case of characteristic $0$.

    $\begingroup$ Milne has a nice article in the proceedings of a conference on Arithmetic Geometry (1984) for those of us not fluent in Weil's Foundations. $\endgroup$
