So, I shouldn't answer this without mentioning ACE:

There are books on ACE and such, but it is a framework, and sometimes 
you just want a small class library. For that, I'd point to Socket++:

It has the nice advantage of Socket++ is that it gives you the standard 
IOStreams interface to sockets.
