If you're interested in ancient blue, the book Blue: The History of a Color by Michel Pastoureau is very enjoyable. I also enjoyed his Red history book.
And I've just noticed that he went on to write histories of Yellow, Green, White, and Black which I shall pop on my festive wishlist, thank you very much!
