I can recommend, Amazon.com: Fixed Income Analysis (CFA Institute Investment Series) (9780470052211): Frank J. Fabozzi CFA, Martin L. Leibowitz: Books ...Seems like Fabozzi has a monopoly on fixed income literature...

If you want non-quantitative introduction to bond markets, this will be a very good read:
Amazon.com: The Complete Guide to Capital Markets for Quantitative Professionals (McGraw-Hill Library of Investment and Finance) (9780071468299): Alex Kuznetsov: Bookshttp://www.amazon.com/Complete-Quan...=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1269873298&sr=8-1

"The Bond and Money Markets," by Moorad Choudhry, is an interesting book. But it is 1152 pages and $157 on Amazon. If there is a bible on the bond markets, this is it. I also like the Fabozzi books.
