I have to respectfully disagree. While to some people a class might be the way to go, others (myself included) learn better by the book. I majored in computer engineering in college, didn't learn any C++ there back then, and taught it myself.
I do agree though that it's not easy to learn, and Java would be a better language to 'ease' into programming.
If you do want to learn from a book, I can highly recommend the book 'The C++ programming language', by the creator of c++ himself;
Amazon.com: C++ Programming Language, The (3rd Edition): Bjarne Stroustrup: Books
Once you're done with that book, check out 'Effective C++' and if you still haven't got enough 'More Effective C++'
With those 3 books, you should be able to answer 95% of any c++ related interview question
