Maybe in a year or so. Right now I'm working on a reference book on
cryptographic protocols, and it's looking like it's gonna take a pretty
major chunk of work.
Meanwhile, if you read "The Codebreakers" by David Kahn, you will
find a few gems of pencil-and-paper cryptanalytic technique in there
sandwiched by lots and lots of history. The history is interesting
though, so it won't be a boring or frustrating hunt.
