Often I complain that GTK+ documentation (non-reference) is non-existent. The few GTK+ books that were ever written are now old and most of their included source code does not even compile anymore. All hail "Foundations of GTK+ Development" by Andrew Krause.

It's an older book, but I still like "Developing Linux Application with GTK+ and GDK" by Eric Harlow. It has a very friendly, conversational style, but provides a good overall introduction to GTK+.
My own take on GTK+ development was mixed. I come from a C++/Java background, so I found GTK's semi-object-oriented programming a little strange. I would probably use GTKMM, the C++ wrapper framework. In Windows I preferred MFC C++ development rather than Win32 API C programming.
Of course, these days I prefer Java and .NET. Coding for VM's seems to be the rage, you know. Go Parrot!
