- Minnesota Politicians on the National Stage

Om North Star Rising

North Star Rising traces the impact Minnesota’s politicians have had on national politics, from its first territorial governor, Alexander Ramsey, to Vice Presidents Hubert Humphrey and Walter Mondale.

The book concludes with a look at recent Minnesota political figures as well as a peek at some of the rising stars of the DFL, Republican, and Independence parties. It depicts Minnesota’s political involvement on the national stage from the state’s infancy to its hosting of the Republican National Convention in 2008.
