The Code Book: The Science of Secrecy from Ancient Egypt to Quantum Cryptography

This is an excellent history of cipher and code breaking from its' infancy through today. Some of the technical aspects of more modern code breaking is hard reading to understand the principles but one who is interested in learning the technical details about code breaking will find it very educational.

I found the detail of the beale papers very challenging.
