BUILDERS
The contemporary Torah society did not evolve out of a vacuum. There were three spiritual leaders: Rabbi Yosef Shlomo Kahaneman, Rabbi Aaron Kotler and Frau Sara Schenirer whose insight, foresight, devotion and innovation changed ? indeed, created ? the Yeshivah and Bais Yaakov world of today. They each faced what appeared to be the annihilation of the religious infrastructure as they knew it, and responded with far-reaching leadership that stymied naysayers and built a religious empire unparalleled in Jewish history. Their biographies ? inspiring, absorbing and instructive ? are fundamental knowledge for any observant Jew.480 pages, ISBN: 1-881939-15-4List Price $24.00 Our Price $21.00Reviews Words of Praise Click the image for an excerpt
