In 1922 what would become Agudath Israel of America began its work. Few were the places where Shabbos was observed or Torah was studied. In the eighty years since the Orthodox world has grown in size, influence, ability and accomplishments. Those eighty years reflect the stories of untold scores of families and individual who toiled to create a better world for Jewish observance and Torah study in the United States, who dared to dream about a vibrant Orthodox Jewish future. What this book presents are the stories of several such families and individuals. Spanning a broad swath of the Orthodox Jewish world and representing a diversity of both background and geography, they shine as stars punctuating the American Jewish firmament, illuminating for all who read their stories what it means to live not only Torah lives but lives for Torah.

A sparkling panorama of the personalities who helped build and shape the American Torah community. With biographies of Rabbi Dovid Leibowitz, Reb Elimelech (Mike) Tress, Rabbi Moshe Sherer, Mrs. Necha Golding, and more, this beautifully designed book tells the story of self-sacrifice and dedication. A coffee-table work, with numerous pictures and an elegant format.(320 Pages)
