Alaska's Political
Landscape
The political history of Alaska is filled with
colorful characters from diverse backgrounds, and the museum collection
represents both would-be and successful politicians, as well as various
political issues of importance. The museum takes a historical perspective
of candidates, parties, and movements, and preserves a well-rounded
selection from multiple viewpoints.
