A remarkable story of the dedication,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ernest Gruening: Alaska's Greatest Governor (Paperback)
Also available in a hardcover edition (1889963348, $49.95), Ernest Gruening: Alaska's Greatest Governor by Claus-M. Naske (Professor Emeritus of History, University of Alaska, Fairbanks) is the biography of the man whom President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed as the governmor of territorial Alaska in 1939. For twenty years, Gruening served his post and left an indissoluable mark upon the state's future. Unpublished archival materials flesh out the author's study of the Gruening's political career, including his struggle to stop discrimination against Alaska Natives and, when he was elected to the U.S. Senate, his efforts to oppose the Vietnam War. A remarkable story of the dedication, voice, and achievements of a great twentieth-century leader.
