How does Velma Wallis use imagery in Two Old Women: An Alaska Legend of Betrayal, Courage, and Survival?

Examples of Imagery:

"Far off in this seemingly dismal land were bands of people dressed in furs and animal skins, huddled close to small campfires. Their weather-burnt faces were stricken with looks of hopelessness as they faced starvation, and the future held little promise of better days." Pages 1-2

"Ch'idzigyaak shuddered to think of the melting frost dripping on them in the cold weather. How had they managed before? Ah, yes! The younger ones were always there, piling wood on the fire, peering into the shelter to make sure their elders' fire did not go out. What a pampered pair they had been! How would they survive now?"
