As others have noted, most everything you'll need is available freely
online (with most of it here on the WebAIM site). If you're looking
for something that puts it all in one place, WebAIM has The WebAIM
Guide to Web Accessibility (http://webaim.org/products/training/)
which is a CD-ROM reference guide with over 1000 printed pages of
materials and media - much more than you'll get in any book.

In addition to the ones the others have noted, you can get Joe Clark's
Building Accessible Websites for free at http://joeclark.org/book/
It's a bit dated (though Joe is apparently working on an update), but
in my opinion is the most complete, comprehensive, and accurate
accessibility book out there.
