What about http://cplusplus.com/? I Don't own a single book on C++, and I don't see why anyone would need to.
Also, have a look at the documentation for the Dark GDK.
It's not perfectly correct on some commands but it is generally a good guide.

Gaddis's book is very good I think,even if you haven't learned C++.

My thought's on learning Dark GDK is that you should really start learning ANSI C as it's so little to learn. C++ has way too much for the beginner to get started with. And GDK being based on DBP runs just fine using ANSI C.

Try reading these PDF's, and it also has the ANSI C cheat sheet.

Whaaat? No... I started with C++ as a "primary language" (As have many others I know) and we found it to be one of the easiest languages to learn. The only book we ever used was Sam's Teach Yourself C++ in 10 Minutes a Day, which may seem like a silly title/source, but was actually quite informative. It keeps the lessons simple, and covers only one topic at a time. Then, as the book progresses, it challenges the reader to integrate everything taught so far into one program. I'd recommend it for anyone to start with.
