I'm wanting to obtain a textbook on Algebra, but I've noticed they all seem to be sold as "Algebra I" and "Algebra II". This inspires two questions: 1 - Is there any single textbook that covers all of algebra? 2 - any idea why it's always divvied up into two books (example: is there a specific discipline of algebra known officially as "algebra II")? BTW - I'm not in school or anything. I want to practice problems out of a desire to refresh my memory.

No. (Nothing about algebra itself inspires any such distinctions. It's a side effect of the way math is taught in US schools) A good library will have many old texts.
