I flipped through the usual C++ Demystified and C++ for Dummies at the book store and I do not feel this type of book is what I need. It is great for a step by step walk through on how to do some light coding, but I am more looking for a textbook style format with great appendices.
Any suggestions?

I don't need to be speed writing code or anything, just to be able to read it, or in most cases decode it with a great reference.
