The Rocket: The History and Development of Rocket and Missile Technology (1978) By David Baker
 
A truly comprehensive account of the development of rocketry, from the ancient Chinese and gun powder, until a quarter of the way into the development of the Shuttle (it was published in 1978). A fantastic book filled with a really interesting development. Don't be fooled by the cover, it doesn't just concentrate on the space program--it covers every sort of rocket (ICBMs, sounding rockets, etc.).
