Is this a good book?

<p>I am taking APUSH right now. Our textbook is "A People and A Nation" (4th edition). I am having trouble understand the textbook but I found these 2 books.</p>

<p>I was wondering if these books will help me in my AP course and how does the info in these books compare with whats tested on the AP exam?</p>
