Game Programming All in One by de Sousa would meet your needs. It teaches C++ in part one, Windows Programming with DirectX in part two. And in part three teaches Advanced Game Programming. The books runs about $50. Of course this is probably not the BEST book to learn c++ from but it does teach most of the aspects of game programming in one book like you requested.


good luck btw.

I only have enough $$$ for one book. Which one should I get since I don't know any C++.
