Is there a book I can learn about American economics?

For example I didn't know most of the fracking and oil took place in PA.. I knew Texas is big in Oil... I think the US did some deal with Mexico to make avocado's cheaper? lol

Every state seems to be famous for making something and this information just seems to appear randomly in articles I read. No compilation.

 

Google search.
