Prudhoe Bay Governor: Alaska's Keith Miller by Keith Harvey Miller

As told to Joseph Edward Maynard, this book recounts the life of Keith Miller from his youth through the present day, including his stint as governor of Alaska (1969-1970), the period when the North Slope oil leases were sold. It was through this sale that the state received $900 million in one day. Mr. Miller came to Alaska in 1957, homesteaded in the Talkeetna area, and is the only person to have served in the Alaska House and Senate, as Secretary of State (Lt. Governor) and as Governor.
