Jim Novy was a self-made success story, arriving in America a teenager with just a few dollars in his pocket. His lifespan covered many interesting 20th century events. While in some ways, he was a microcosm of the immigrant Jewish experience, he went beyond that in terms of wealth and political connections. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The First Jew of Texas - The Life of Jim Novy (David Chapin)
