From Edison to Marconi: The First Thirty Years of Recorded Music
After reading this book, a friend recommended to me a more recent book on the same subject: Perfecting Sound Forever, by Greg Milner. I was shocked by how much better the Milner book is. Milner is a much better writer and thinker; his subject matter is treated more thoroughly, while also including very interesting asides.
My advice is, don't even bother with Playback. Go right to reading Perfecting Sound Forever. If you want more information on this subject area, you can then try the Playback book, which has some material not covered in the other book.
