Title: World War II Civil Liberties Ansel Adams Born Free and Equal 1944 Photographs of Japanese Americans at Manzanar War Relocation Center
Author: Ansel Adams
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1944. Adams, Ansel. Born Free and Equal published in 1944 presents a photographic record of Japanese Americans incarcerated at the Manzanar War Relocation Center in California during World War II. Adams produced the work following visits to Manzanar in 1943 and 1944, when Japanese American families were confined under wartime relocation policies after the issuance of Executive Order 9066. The book documents daily life inside the camp and portrays individuals who had lost homes, businesses, and professions after forced removal from the West Coast. Adams framed the project as an effort to depict the civic loyalty and resilience of the incarcerated community while the war was still underway and anti Japanese sentiment remained widespread in the United States. Adams, Ansel. Born Free and Equal: The Story of Loyal Japanese-Americans. New York: U.S. Camera, 1944. First edition, first printing. Adams undertook the project after being invited by Manzanar director Ralph Merritt to photograph life at the camp. The resulting images were later exhibited publicly and published in this volume. Adams described his intent directly in the book: "The purpose of my work was to show how these people, suffering under a great injustice, and loss of property, businesses and professions, had overcome the sense of defeat and despair by building for themselves a vital community in an arid (but magnificent) environment...All in all, I think this Manzanar Collection is an important historical document." The photographs portray residents of the camp in everyday activities and community roles, including families, nurses, students, farmers, and veterans such as Nobutero Harry Sumida, identified in the text as a Spanish American War veteran. The book also includes landscape images of the Owens Valley surrounding the camp. Adams's Manzanar photographs became part of a broader effort during the war to shape public perception of the incarceration of Japanese Americans, and the publication and exhibition of the images generated significant discussion because of the subject matter. The work remains one of the earliest extended photographic documentations of life within a wartime relocation center. Softcover volume measuring approximately 11 × 8 inches. 112 pages including 65 photographic illustrations. Stapled maroon wrappers with light green lettering. Minor half inch tear at the lower front spine and light handling wear; interior pages and photographic reproductions remain clean and bright. Very good condition overall and an important contemporary photographic record of Japanese American wartime incarceration.
