In 2009 Alaska celebrates its fiftieth anniversary of U.S. statehood. To commemorate that milestone, "Alaska"" at 50" brings together some of today s most noteworthy and recognizable writers and researchers to address the past, present, and future of Alaska. Divided into three overarching sections art, culture, and humanities; law, economy, and politics; and environment, people, and place "Alaska"" at 50" is written in highly accessible prose. Illustrations and photographs of significant artefacts of Alaska history enliven the text. Each contributor brings a strong voice and prescription for the next fifty years, and the resulting work presents Alaskans and the nation with an overview of Alaska statehood and ideas for future development."
