About the author
Oscar Lewis
236听books40听followersOscar Lewis was born in New York City in 1914, and grew up on a small farm in upstate New York. He received his PhD in anthropology from Columbia University in 1940, and taught at Brooklyn College and Washington University before helping to found the anthropology department at the University of Illinois, where he was a professor from 1948 until his death. From his first visit to Mexico in 1943, Mexican peasants and city dwellers were among his major interests. In addition to The Children of Sanchez, his other studies of Mexican life include Life in a Mexican Village, Five Families, Pedro Martinez, and A Death in the Sanchez Family. He is also the author of La Vida: A Puerto Rican Family in the Culture of Poverty鈥擲an Juan and New York, which won the National Book Award, and Living the Revolution: An Oral History of Contemporary Cuba, with his wife, Ruth Maslow Lewis, and Susan M. Rigdon. Lewis also published widely in both academic journals and popular periodicals such as Harper鈥檚 Magazine. Some of his best-known articles were collected in Anthropological Essays (1970). The recipient of many distinguished grants and fellowships, including two Guggenheims, Lewis was a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He died in 1970.

This is the first book of its kind that I stumbled upon. Written from different perspectives of a handful of people in the Martinez family, you get the feel of how tough life used to be for many peasants back in Mexico during the early 1900s.
Poverty sucks. It鈥檚 even more complicated when your village, society, and country are going through drastic changes tainted with corruption and unfairness. This story chronicles those changes in the Republic of Mexico during the Revolution and Pedro鈥檚 involvement in these historical events.
The simplicity of daily life is what pulled me in at first. What grabbed me is learning about the realities that the family and villagers faced during different time periods of their life. It was a different time and reading this book can take you back into the reality and way of life of peasants back in Azteca village in ol' Mexico.
Recommended read if you鈥檙e into ethnology.
