The WRTH (World Radio TV Handbook) book is a great reference to find out what to listen to, how to contact the stations and well as some reviews of the latest equipment available for this hobby.  The second book, Broadcasting on the Short Waves, is a history of broadcasting on shortwave from the a listener's (Jerome Berg) point of view over the time span of 1945 to 2008.
