The OP's example code wasn't that far off - she just omitted the type
specialization when she declared v1.  That's a pretty common typo, and
I'm not sure it justifies throwing away the book (although I agree
that a disturbingly high percentage of C++ books are pretty bad and
deserve to be thrown away).

Agreed, on both counts.
