Map of Alaska

The Back Story:

Alaska Map

On January 3, 1959, Alaska, with a land mass larger than Texas, California and Montana combined, became the 49th state in the union. It is a large state, 1/5 the size of all the other states together, reaching so far to the west that the International Date Line had to be bent to keep the state all in the same day. It’s also the only U.S. state extending into the Eastern Hemisphere.

In Alaska, the “family car” has wings, vegetables and fruit grow to two times their normal size and moose interrupt golf games at will.
