FIRST EDITION. Ansel Adams was a famous American photographer and
environmentalist. In 1943 he photographed the Japanese interned in
Manzanar in an attempt to counter the negative depictions of Japanese in
newspapers of the time. This book is a collection of those photographs,
and includes his own writing on the subject.
