Book for beginner

Can anyone recommend a good book (prefer ebook) for a beginner to MS Visual
C++.
I have done programming in the past but not for quite a while so I'd like to
start fresh.
Thanks.

If you need a book recommendation on MS Visual C++, you should ask in
the MS Visual C++ newsgroup: microsoft.public.vc.language. Here you
are most likely to get recommendations on a book for C++. Please do
not confuse the two. The former is a _product_, while the latter is
a _language_.

A good book to learn how to use .NET with C++ is
"Visual C++ .NET How To Program" by Deitel.

http://vig.prenhall.com/catalog/acad...373774,00.html
It is very good, it covers even multithreading.
However if you can wait, I suggest you wait for VC++ 2005 and the new
C++/CLI standard.
In the mean time, if you can wait, you can read more standard C++ which
can also be used in .NET.
