"The Joy of Pi" by David Blattner (1997) (published by Allen Lane,
ISBN 0-713-99217-4) covers this in the sort of detail which has been
discussed on this list - and some more - and includes the first
million digits of the decimal expansion.
I have no links with the author or the publisher except that a kind
relative bought be a copy as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago.
