5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read before Citizenship Exam
This book is pretty detailed. The information here is more than enough t pass the interview. If you were to buy one book, this is the one you must get. I looked at couple of other books and they are not as effective as this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars The material is good but did not like the style of this book
This is one of the three books I bought to prepare myself for the Citizenship Test.

It is outdated (the edition I received is 2 years old) and lack information on recent events in American and World History.

The tone of this book reminds me a conversation with a lawyer. Boring, too stylish, and not very friend English.

I really liked...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best citizenship test prep book!, July 6, 2004
By 
Shaun Green (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Twenty-Five Lessons in Citizenship (Paperback)
Twenty-five Lessons in Citizenship is the only book you need to buy to study for and pass the US citizenship test. The book provides all of the history and civics information on the exam.

The lessons are organized in a logical and easy to understand format. At the end of each of the 25 lessons, the book provides the history and civics questions likely to be asked by the USCIS on test day.

FYI- I just recently passed my examination and used this book as my only study guide. If you had to buy one book, this is the one. Good luck on your test!

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise and to the point, August 25, 2005
This review is from: Twenty-Five Lessons in Citizenship (Paperback)
Hennessey's book is a widely used text for anyone contemplating U.S. citizenship or preparing for a U.S Constitution exam. It offers concise explanations of U.S. history, our system of government and how it works, the Constitution, and a sampling of how state government works using California as an example. My only criticism is the author's vantage point. Why is it assumed that a citizen's primary function in our society is to engage in political activity? Nevertheless, Hennessey's book is highly recommended by this reviewer.

Very good book, it covered the History of the U.S. in great detail. However, when it came to explain state laws, it was based on the California laws.

This review is from: Twenty-Five Lessons in Citizenship (Paperback)
Good Book.
However, in the end, you don't really need it for the Citizenship Exam.
Once you apply for it, as part of the application process, you will receive all the information you will need to pass the test.
Once again, it is helpfu, but unnecessary. Save your money.
As a history source it is very useful though.

The tone of this book reminds me a conversation with a lawyer. Boring, too stylish, and not very friend English.

I really liked - although the edition I receive was 3 years old - "U.S. Citizenship For Dummies", it is more fun and easy to read and learn.
