We Believe is the most definitive book to understanding our American heritage. It is designed to be a quick and easy way for Americans to understand what we, as a nation, believe and the core values upon which our great country was built and continues to thrive on. It is a powerful 30-day tutorial to understanding what our Founding Fathers believed, coupled with the erudite wisdom from subsequent generations, in the hopes of making us all better-informed Americans. Readers are taken on an historical journey from the Declaration of Independence to the Constitution to the Bill of Rights to the words of modern-day bearers of our American heritage and echoes with the voices of great leaders including Madison, Jefferson, Lincoln, JFK, Dr. King, President Reagan, and others-and how their words shaped, and continue to shape, our futures. They will be inspired by the thoughts, ideas and writings of these great leaders and infused with a sense of responsibility to preserve those very same American values for future generations.

It's a good book. Offers pronounciation, definitions, synonyms, and antonyms, as well as good practice. Chances are there are at least some words you'll learn from the book, even if you do well on the diagnostic test but I still suggest that you take that test to see if you should get a higher level book.
