This is the last message I read about the C++ books.  I would like to ask
_anyone_ if a summary of such book recommendations existed, and if so, how
may I get it.

More than that, however, I would like to extend the question and the
request: I am interested in learning OOP, and C++.  I have no access to
classroom teaching of either at this time.  I think I can do best by
learning both OOP and C++ at the same time.  I know C, so I hope the
transition will not be too painful.  I would like to ask for
recommendations for _both_ books and C++ compilers _for this purpose_. 

Thanks in advance.

If you would like a summary, please send email with the header COOP SUM.
