Description

Whitehead, retired from the University of Alaska's history department, draws on interviews with politicians who worked on behalf of statehood for Alaska and Hawaii to tell the story of the 13-year fight to admit the 49th and 50th states to the union, stressing leaders' efforts to overcome the obstacles of anti-communism and racism. B&w historical photos are included. The book had its origins in 1981 as an oral history project for the Alaska Statehood Commission.
