Descrizione"Crude Awakening" is the rollicking story of politics in Alaska, where corruption is currency, oil is lifeblood, and corporations like BP and players like Sarah Palin and the late Ted Stevens run the show. These characters and their rise to power transformed the nation at large--from Stevens's epic fall from grace to the machinations of Bill Allen, the Tony Soprano of Alaska, who controlled candidates and companies while being investigated for allegedly dallying with underage prostitutes. One part "Northern Exposure," one part "Dallas," one part "All the King's Men," "Crude Awakening" is the story of America's last frontier, where machine politicians rely on the largesse of modern-day robber barons and where Sarah Palin reigned supreme, only to resign, leaving Alaska with dying oil fields and an uncertain future.
