Description by OLDIES.com:
Throughout his career, Wally Hickel confounded friend and foe alike because he defied the easy stereotypes of environmentalist and businessman. He was convinced hed discovered a novel philosophy -- inspired by the history of Alaska, and centered around the concept of the commons -- that could show us how to balance development with preservation, satisfy our need for energy, and, he believed, even overcome poverty itself. Fired by President Nixon for his public opposition to the Vietnam War his letter was front page news in 1970 he returned to his beloved Alaska. He kept building, won another term as Alaska Governor, and travelled the world to advance his bold, hopeful vision of developing the Arctic, and sharing the Earths riches in a way that would benefit all of its citizens. This story is told with energy, candor, and the irreverent sense of humor for which this eminently quotable politician has always been known. Produced by Emmy-Award winner Kenneth Mandel of Great Projects Media, this one-hour documentary has been broadcast on PBS stations nationwide.
