Query: Certainly not for Visual C++ beginners

I started my C++ adventures with "Ivor Horton's Beginning C++ : The Complete Language ANSI/ISO Compliant (Wrox Beginning Series)" and found that book to be very helpful, easy to follow and informative. Unfortunately that book didn't have any Visual C++ 6 specifics, which then lead me to purchase this book.With C and C++ background, I initially started reviewing the Visual C++ specifics in this book. Unfortunately, I could not follow the authors' thought process, so I started the C++ specifics, and again, had to stop, regressing to the beginning of the book.Eventually, I gave up on the book. My conclusion is that the authors are unable to convey simple concepts, and have a knack for complicating even the most basic concepts. I would strongly dissuade beginner-level programmers from purchasing this book!
