Manzanar

Both Embrey and Adams provide a unique and interesting way of describing the internment camp. Embrey writes an interesting story, and Adams takes photographs. Embreys use of words describing Manzanar help the reader to better understand the quality of life there, and why they were there and for how long, and other fine details about the camp. Adams' photographs, however, reflect a more positive viewpoint of the camp, such as classes, the church, and people smiling and appearing to be fairly happy during their stay at the camp.
