Discover this great state of Alaska through LocalTom, providing abundant local business listing and reviews. What was a familiar area for Russian whalers and fur traders was once offered $7.2 million to them by U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward in 1867. On October 18, 1867, Alaska officially became the property of the U.S. and officially became the 49th state on January 3, 1959. Just as how the gold rush of 1849 attracted many to move out to California, Joe Juneau's discovery of gold ushered in the gold rush era in 1880.
Alaska's massive geographical size hosts many natural resources, which in return employs thousands of people that support local businesses. Much of the Alaskans work in industries directly tied to the most important revenue sources - oil and natural gas industry; and fishing and seafood industry is the state's largest private industry employer. As a result, most of America's favorite seafood choices such as salmon, crab, halibut, and herring come from Alaska.
