The Impact of the Frontier On a Jewish Family: The Bibos by Floyd S. Fierman Originally published in print by the Southwest Jewish Archives, Fall 1988.   About This Digital Version The digital version of The Impact of the Frontier On a Jewish Family: The Bibos, was created in February 1999. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) scanning, using Caere's OmniPage Limited Edition software, was used to create an electornic file of the print version. The OCR version was spell-checked in MS Word and proof read twice. A format replicating the print version as closely as possible was attempted to maintain the intellectual organization presented by Floyd S. Fierman in 1988. Readers will find numerous spelling errors throughout the text. These may be attributed to spelling errors made in the original documents (e.g. letters written by Simon Bibo to various and sundry officials). For the most part, Fierman did not note them with the [sic] notation. If you find an mis-spelling that you believe may be the result of faulty proof reading after the OCR scanning and conversion to HTML, please note it's location in an e-mail message. It will be corrected immediately. Copies of the print version are available from the University of Arizona Library's Special Collections, home of the Bloom Southwest Jewish Archives. The print copies are used for fund raising and a modest donation is requested.
