I don't know anything about the book, I haven't read anything about C++ 
in many years, but if Richard Stallman wrote the foreword, I assume it 
is on the up and up.  But it looks like the entire text of the book is 
accessible from that link, so I guess you can read the entire thing 
before hand.   From a quick look though, it looks like it assumes that 
you have a somewhat basic understanding of C++ and just need to know how 
to use the GCC compiler to compile your code.
