Do you really want to know how parsers work? I ask because it can mean years of study to understand parser theory.but what is the logic to read data from xml file using c++ and display on the screen??
Or do you just want to get the job of parsing done? I ask because using an existing library will be fairly easy. As laserlight says, just pick one; flip a coin if you must.

tinyxml and tinyxpath will probably solve all your problems.

tinyxml seems to be the most popular one, although I have also come across tinyxml++ but have not used it yet, or liquid xml c++ tool will happily do the job as well.
Looks like the site has two versions now.

If all you want to do is read XML, boost::property tree is the easiest way to go.
It's dead simple, it's header only, so no compiling and linking libraries, and it has xpath-esque syntax for easy access to the XML data.
