“It’s rare, but here is a whole book — and a gem it is — in which text and photographs echo and

drive, rather than peacefully war with each other,” Judith Mara Gutman wrote of “Fruit Tramps”

in The New York Times. Mr. Emmet’s photographs “are integral to the story, words bringing

readers to a scene, photographs taking us right in.” The effect was “electric,” she wrote.

“My admiration for his work soars,” the photographer Cornell Capa wrote in the book’s

foreword.
