Working Effectively with Legacy Code is a good read: it presents what kind of code you want to attain and methods to get there from a crappy code base.
The definition of legacy code for the author (which I like) is: untested code. So the book is more about getting code in a testable state than random refactoring to get to Clean Code level.
