I went in cold, and did reasonably well. I'd say you need three books:
1. your high school precalc book

Read those cover to cover and it's yours. :)
Honestly, it's not that hard of a test.
Yeah, it's about like the SAT, but with the new test format (well new
when I took it), you have to take it differently than the traditional
paper and pencil tests. The Kaplan book comes with a CD that simulates
the computer test, where you sort of learn how to time yourself
properly. It's no longer a good idea to just answer the ones you know
first, because you can't go back. So you have to make good judgements
on what you should try, what will waste too much of your time, etc.
Also the scoring is dynamic: a question answered correctly means you'll
get a harder question next time, and it "zeros in" on your appropriate
score.
