The efforts that led to the rescue of Rabbi Yosef Y. Schneerson of Lubavitch from war-torn Europe in 1939-40.
This book presents, via the vast collection of communications, letters and memoranda - the dramatic, far-reaching efforts associated with the rescue of Rabbi Yosef Y. Schneerson and his family. The book speaks in the voice of the documents with minor editorial guidance.
Included are facsimiles of some of the documents, photographs of the key figures involved in the rescue effort, as well as many chasidim and friends mentioned in the book are included. Maps of the rescue trail that began in Otwock, Poland, and ended at the shored of New York City, round out the presentation.
