Toe was a political cartoonist living and working in Alaska’s capital city when a little-known, small-town mayor named Sarah Palin began a run for statewide office. The satirical cartoons that would follow over the next several years would garner national attention and become a reader favorite.

Here, along with those original cartoons, are many previously unpublished drawings, and reflections on how Alaskans reacted to Sarah Palin’s—and their own newfound celebrity.

"Toe has a gift for capturing mood and emotion in his political cartoons. This collection tracks Sarah Palin's political path and Juneau's uneasy dance with her from a local, personal perspective. His text offers a candid, conversational and remarkably astute romp through Alaska's recent history."
