Maria/ME Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 HI: I have a friend who is applying for citizenship here in the U.S. She needs to "brush up" on her American History/Civics/Gov't etc studies. Does anyone have any ideas for a college level book/video/audio? I have gleaned a few ideas via a search but thought I'd post for more ideas. Thanks!

Moira in MA Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I've just gone through the citizenship process myself. I'd recommend a book specifically aimed at the citizenship test. I used this one, borrowed from the library. http://www.amazon.com/Becoming-U-S-Citizen-Interview/dp/0873377990/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215827325&sr=1-1 The test is really very simple, There are 100 possible questions. The interviewer has a subset of specific questions from this list to ask each interviewee. He or she is looking for close matches to the answers given in the study guide. Getting a college level text would be going into too much detail, HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria/ME Posted July 13, 2008 Author Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks so much for your input! I appreciate your point that a college level text would be too much detail. I will recommend this book to my friend! Meanwhile, if anyone else has an ideas of a more simple overview of history let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
