Another book similar to Morris Kline's _Mathematics for the Nonmathematician_, which the OP mentioned, is Lancelot Hogben's _Mathematics for the Million_. Originally published in 1937, it has been in print ever since, through several revisions. This also takes a historical approach, beginning with numbers and counting, measure and Greek geometry; and eventually covering calculus, matrices, probability, and statistics.
You can take a look at it, at the Internet Archive,
