In the logic classes I took (my professor always said he hated the textbooks), we used this book and this book. They weren't perfect, but they were a good start.
For a history of philosophy, I'll second the comments on Will Durant and Bertrand Russell's books. Also, Richard Tarnas, The Passion of the Western Mind, is a little more modern style and covers more of the 20th century.
For introductions to logic, Kant is pretty advanced. I'd start with Anthony Weston's Rulebook for Arguments for a short but fairly comprehensive explanation of the basics. For more formal logical analysis, I like Howard Pospesel's cartoon-driven explanations and exercises: Predicate Logic and Propositional Logic.
