The Rough Guide to Classical Music- being fairly new to classical music, I'm finding it a very useful book. It lists more than 200 composers from all the ages in A-Z format, but there's also a contents pages that groups the composers into the times they lived in. It gives summaries of all the composers, as well as summaries of their (considered) best works, and recommended recordings of these works.

I just re-read The Violin Maker. It was a lot of fun. I'll be passing it around the family now.
