A good book (albeit a bit dated) is: Beginning ATL 3COM Programming
You might also want to have a look at MS Inside ATL

There are several books that cover ATL/COM/ActiveX etc. I would suggest that you do a search on Amazon and consider the content and the reviews to choose one suitable for your requirements. Some are quite dated (from 1998/1999/2000) but their content is still relevant.
