Growth and Development of a Cheder Boy from Otwock, Poland to a Leader of the American Jewish Community
In Rabbi Sholem Kowalsky's lifetime he observed pre-war Poland, the Holocaust, the rescue and rebuilding of Jewish life in the United States and the re-establishment of our ancient homeland, Eretz Yisrael. He partook in the development of the day school movement, served three congregations, and organized a foundation to promote Torah and Yiddishkeit. And through it all he had the vision of his grandfather smiling down at him and urging him onward. An enlightening and enjoyable read.
