Firstly there's the ever-favorite (and accessible):
  _Applied Cryptography_ (2nd edition), by Bruce Schneier,
  John Wiley & sons, ISBN 0-471-11709-9, 1995, 784 pages.

and someone recently recommended these three volumes on sci.crypt:

  _Handbook of Applied Cryptography_ by Alfred J. Menezes et al., CRC
  Press, ISBN 0-8493-8523-7, 1997, 779 pages.

  _A Course in Number Theory and Cryptography_ by Neal Koblitz,
  Springer-Verlag, ISBN 3-540-94293-9, 1994, 233 pages.

  _Cryptography: Theory and Practice_ by Douglas R. Stinson, CRC Press,
  ISBN 0-8493-8521-0, 1995, 434 pages.
