In Hebrew. Two title pages. 17 + 41 leaves. 215 x 170 mm. Lacks spine strip. Printed on good thick paper, but the pages are browned and stained. The manuscript was ready for printing in the author's lifetime. In the introduction to the first edition of "Nefesh HaChaim" Vilna, 1824, the author’s son and successor, Rabbi Yitzchak of Valazin wrote that the name of the essay on Pirkei Avot would be Ruakh Khayim, "Spirit of Life." But Rabbi Yitzchak of Valazin was unable to publish it in his lifetime either. It was finally published by the grandson of the author, Rabbi Eliyahu Shlomo Zalman, son of Rabbi Yitzchak, together with his son-in-law Rabbi Yehoshua Heshil Levin. With an important introduction by Rabbi Avraham Simcha of Stislav, who was the editor and publisher of Safra Datzniuta and of Nefesh HaChaim.
