Scrapbook One consists of personal photographs of life in the camps, along with handwritten captions by Emily Light, many original programs and invitations for weddings, plays, church outings and other events within the camp. The scrapbook has been scanned and compiled into PDF files.  In order to have sufficient resolution to be able to read the articles, the files are large so the scrapbook has been divided into three parts.

Have a look at them.  They are fantastic with wonderful insights and commentaries from Emily Light.  The scrapbooks were made during and soon after her time in the camps, making her comments all the more enlightening considering the times.
