Depends on distro, but mainly on version of g++ you have (gcc is the C
compiler). Current versions seem to be under /usr/include/g++-2/ or
/usr/include/g++-3/, the newer ones have "-3".

For books, you probably want Stroustrup (he wrote C++, you'll know it
when you see it), plus something on STL and one specifically titled "The
Standard C++ Library" (by Plaugner).
