I was born in the states and raised here but what books, can help improve the level of speach?
I want to speak better anyone know of any good books that can help?
correction...speech* I misspelled the word in a question trying to ask how to speak better!
What application of speech do you mean? Grammar, pronunciation or articulation?
Here is a quick link on improving English:

If you mean grammar: http://www.amazon.com/English-Grammar-D … 0470546646
If you mean pronunciation: http://www.amazon.com/Improve-Your-Amer … 0071428097
If you mean being well-spoken, articulate, effectively communicating your thoughts and ideas: http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Ahead-Hom … 0521407060
I hope this helps. Kudos for your effort.
Warm regards~
Generally, the best way to improve speech is to stop using any slang words and phrases, and to think about how each word is formed, avoid dropping Hs, except in cases where it is valid, as in hotel, it can be pronounced either way. Don't use the glottal stop. These few things will improve your speech. Do not try to imitate BBC English, or Hollywood English, your accent will be fine.
