Huzel & Huang - "Design of liquid propellant rocket engines" 
is a classic in the field. Below is a link to a free copy 
(NASA site) of the second edition 1971. Old but still very 
very useful. 31 MB.

Also available for free is a text on combustion stability in 
liquid rocket engines. 86 MB.

The sizes in the post below are swapped.
