A pioneering work from a visionary anthropologist, The Children of Sanchez is hailed around the world as a watershed achievement in the study of poverty--a uniquely intimate investigation, as poignant today as when it was first published.

It is the epic story of the S nchez family, told entirely by its members--Jesus, the 50-year-old patriarch, and his four adult children--as their lives unfold in the Mexico City slum they call home. Weaving together their extraordinary personal narratives, Oscar Lewis creates a sympathetic but ultimately tragic portrait that is at once harrowing and humane, mystifying and moving.

An invaluable document, full of verve and pathos, The Children of Sanchez reads like the best of fiction, with the added impact that it is all, undeniably, true.

great product received on time and quality.
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Grey
Pretty professional and great outlook wearing it with a tie. Can be used in any environment but not in a warmth area with a Jacket. Feels pretty comfortable. Material was great indeed and pretty silky from the inside.

Style and comfort doesn't always have to be expensive:
Size: 13, Color: Wingtip Black
I bought this ones mainly because I have used them before and they are great for dancing. Specially salsa dancing. They look really stylish with formal cloth. A great blend of classic "wing tip" with modern details and smooth lines. They fit nice with thin and medium socks and have medium arc support. They will feel better with each use and are very good for salsa ballroom dancing turns on the forefoot and ruber on the heel for safe stops and stability. They fit true to size and foot stays locked in place with the lacing it provides. Great presentation with the box and awsome price for great quality formal shoes.
