Excerpts from netnews.comp.os.os2.programmer: 27-Jul-92 Programming OS/2
2.0 ... Brian Matusz@vela.acs.oa (647)

Petzold has a book on OS/2, although it was written using OS/2 version
1.1, so it doesn't cover things like ATM, and the other nicities of
V2.0, but it still does have a section on using DosCreateThread to
multitask things (I've yet to read it) 

I've foind the book a great start to get into programming PM, and OS/2,
and have had almost no problems (at least ones that were not solvable by
all you wonderful netlanders) using the native port of gcc.  The name of
the book is "Programming the OS/2 Presentation Manager" and is put out
by, guess who, Microsoft Press.  Hope this helps...
