The very basic and easy written book with all of the basic c++ technique is
Object-Oriented Programming in C++, Robert Lafore

What languages are you familiar with right now?

IMHO the Lippman book is very boring. I warmly recommend this book, it is lucid and highly readable:
Thinking in C++
Free PDF is available from these dowloade links:
Bruce Eckel's MindView, Inc: Book Download Sites[^]
Some links (e.g. the first one) are broken, others good. But if you like it, but the paper version, really worth it.
... such stuff as dreams are made on

Scott Meyers' Effective C++ Series of books are a must reads for those who will do a lot of C++ programming, but not until after you've mastered the fundamentals. They cover a lot of things that will eventually bite you in the ass.

I happen to disagre with @svella. While you do need some reference to pick up the syntax, if you already know C (like I did), the syntax is very natural. Learning C++ syntax is easy. Learning object oriented programming is hard. Learning templates, exceptions, and containers is hard.

Have you been programming in any other languages all these years from college?
Generally , the book "Thinking in C++" from Eckel has good reviews in amazon, and you can find it free on line from the authors website. I have not read it yet but it seems a good and free choice. I have read most of Lafores book of 2003 edition , and also I have read most of the book "A complete guide to programming in C++" by Prinz, from 2001. I found them both good introductory books. But if you have been programming in some language all these years , then maybe you could use "Professional C++ , 3rd edition" , a book of 2014 , so you will be current with C++14. And since you are not a novice , the new edition of Lipman's book "C++ primer , 2012 edition" would still be OK for you , I do not think you will have a hard time to follow it, although it may be a little boring.

If they can't deprecate/defecate it they move it where no one can find it, or in layman's terms SNAFU!
New version: WinHeist Version 2.2.2 Beta I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!

I don't think you can have it...On my MSDN subscriptions I have Expression Blend 1&2 and Expression Studio 1-4, but can't see it nowhere else...

Is this a Merkin TV Show or a euphemism for male masturbation?

The real question is why has it taken you 4 years to ask?
Wouldn't be at all surprised to find it's a Leslie but I can't be bothered to run the search!

It's about 02:30 Tuesday morning here in Oz, I'm still up working remotely on a customer's server. While certain tasks are running I'm out skimming the TV channels and snacking on crap. Hillbilly Handfishin' was next up on channel 73. I thought it would be a good question to throw up here. Much better than those Here's a spastic clue, have a go at answering it things that infest this place now.

Typical Oz TV scheduling. Free to Air TV in Oz tends to lag a little.
