Look at the wikipedia popular literature references.

I liked this one better:

John Derbyshire, Prime Obsession: Bernhard Riemann and the Greatest
Unsolved Problem in Mathematics , Joseph Henry Press (April 23, 2003),
ISBN 0309085497. (448 page book at a non-specialist level, can be read
online for free.)

Which is interesting in and of itself, but I thought Deryshire's
book was more about the hypothesis.
