About The Children of Sanchez
The Children of Sanchez is a 1961 book by American anthropologist Oscar Lewis about a Mexican family living in the Mexico City slum of Tepito, which he studied as part of his program to develop his concept of culture of poverty. The book is subtitled "Autobiography of a Mexican family". According to the dedication by the author in the opening pages of the book, the actual last name of the family is not "Sanchez", in order to maintain the privacy of the family members.
