The most generally useful book on bread is Elizabeth David's English Bread
and Yeast Cookery.  10,000 Years of Bread is also interesting.  Borrow
Dupaigne's The History of Bread from the library and save your money.  You
will also want to find a copy of the Assize of Bread (there is at least one
copy online).  If you want to go seriously into bread, there are milling
manuals, archeological papers, studies of grains and other such sources in
and out of print.

My sources are in disarray at the moment, but if you let me know what you
are looking for specifically, I'll try to point you to it.
