Applied Cryptography by Bruce Schneier
A comprehensive tutorial and reference but a little light on
mathematical theory.

Handbook of Applied Cryptography by A. J. Menezes, P. C. van Oorschot,
and S. A. Vanstone CRC Press, (PDF download available), somewhat more
mathematical than Schneier's Applied Cryptography.
