They Called Him Rebbe: The Life and Good Works of Rabbi Boruch Milikowsky

Entertaining and inspiring in equal measure, this volume contains more than one hundred vivid stories of Rabbi Boruch Milikowsky’s life and his relationship with his students. The book, which includes new primary material about the Rabbi’s Holocaust experience and exile in Shanghai, chronicles the triumphs and tragedies of the beloved Torah educator’s life, a life marked by the humor, wisdom, and compassion he demonstrated as he sought to help his students achieve their full potential as Jews and as human beings.
