I have the Tony Gaddis C++ book. This link shows what each chapter covers, and there are a lot of exercises in the book.

when i was younger i had a dream of being a programmer myself. so i bought many C programming books and most of them lead me nowhere. i almost got to the point where i was going to give up until i found a programming book that changed everything. the book was "the complete reference, C forth edition. by herbert schildt. isbn 0-07-212124-6. after that i got his windows 98 programming from the ground up. after going through these two books, all the other ones i wasted money on suddenly became very valuable. i dont recogmend his book on c++, but the book that finally got me into c++ was "teach yourself c++, fourth edition." by al stevens isbn 1-55828-406-0. these three books combined is was did it for me. even though the material is considered ancient, all the material still applies for common day programming, except now you have to pay special attention to unicode. after you have mastered these books switch to reading books by jeffery richter. he will set you straight on todays world of windows programming.

A good book for the startups-
"Beginning Programming with C++ For Dummies" By Stephen R. Davis
But if you like to learn through online resources which provide theory for learning programming languages then here I have listed some of the good online resources for it-
