That completes the recommendations from Richard H., which lack
any references to platform-dependent coding, if OP is using
UNIX/Linux, a book on POSIX (e.g. Stevens APUE
http://www.kohala.com/start/) is much more useful, than many of
the above suggestions.

Well, this is a platform-independent group. If I were pushed for
platform-specific recommendations, I would start off by saying
APUE to the POSIX people, PW (Petzold, 5th edition ONLY) to the
Win32 people, and UNP to both groups (yes, even the Win32 people,
and even though porting the code from one to the other isn't
entirely effortless).

I note the absence of "Practice of Programming", which I consider
excellent.
