The process of applying for citizenship is a lengthy one, involving questions of residency, basic proficiency in English, and promising to uphold the provisions of the United States Constitution.

Now, with America: The Quiz, you can find out! Inside you will find the 100 test prep questions given to applicants by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Get quizzed on everything from the structure of American government to the basics of American history and civics. Questions include: What is an amendment? What is “the rule of law”? What does the president’s cabinet do? Name three of the original 13 states Name one state that borders Canada Why does the flag have 50 stars? Although most readers will assume they could pass this test with flying colors, there are a surprising number of questions that require more advanced knowledge.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A fascinating explanation for why white America has become fractured and divided in education and class, from the acclaimed author of Human Diversity. “I’ll be shocked if there’s another book that so compellingly describes the most important trends in American society.”—David Brooks, New York Times In Coming Apart, Charles Murray explores the formation of American classes that are different in kind from anything we have ever known, focusing on whites as a way of driving home the fact that the trends he describes do not break along lines of race or ethnicity. Drawing on five decades of statistics and research, Coming Apart demonstrates that a new upper class and a new lower class have diverged so far in core behaviors and values that they barely recognize their underlying American kinship—divergence that has nothing to do with income inequality and that has grown during good economic times and bad. The top and bottom of white America increasingly live in different cultures, Murray argues, with the powerful upper class living in enclaves surrounded by their own kind, ignorant about life in mainstream America, and the lower class suffering from erosions of family and community life that strike at the heart of the pursuit of happiness. That divergence puts the success of the American project at risk. The evidence in Coming Apart is about white America. Its message is about all of America.
