Juneau-Douglas HIstory

"What's Past is Prologue."

This page leads to information resources on the history of the Juneau-Douglas region. Some sites are maintained by the J_D_C_M_; others by various City, State, and Federal agencies, and by other organizations and individuals. It's not all-inclusive, but we've tried to hit the high points.

We think that understanding our history can help us decipher the present and plan for the future. Moreover, moseying around in our dusty detritus (now digitized) is a lot of fun. We hope that you, after exploring the links below, will agree.

• The Bob DeArmond Alaska History Project: a searchable collection of the writings of our region's preeminent historian.
• Sealaska Heritage Institute Collection: photograph and document archives dealing with Native and community history.
• History of the Treadwell Mines, Alaska: A historical picture book about a world-class gold mine at the turn of the century.
• Historic Preservation in Juneau: A description of our historic neighborhoods, and a detailed inventory of one of them: the Casey Shattuck Addition.
• Alaska's Digital Archive: a browseable and searchable collection of historical photographs, albums, oral histories, moving images, maps, documents, physical objects, and other materials from libraries, museums and archives throughout our state. The Juneau-Douglas area is generously represented.
• Bits and Pieces: a selective collection of general Juneau-Douglas history items, from various sources.
