Descriere

Description New with Index World War II, the Cold War era and statehood take hold in the Last Frontier The years from 1935 to 1960 changed Alaska forever. World War II brought Japanese bombs and soldiers to the Aleutians, big defense dollars to build a road to the Lower 48 and Russian pilots to fly secret missions out of Fairbanks. The Cold War era saw more folks stream into Alaska. And along with them came a proliferation of TB, a civil rights battle for the Native people and a struggle to win statehood. Readers from 9 to 99 will enjoy these short stories and the historical photographs that help bring Alaska's history alive.
