the schools listed are ones that use the textbook in their schools

many more schools have ordered just the chapter on the Rebbe Rayatz.

By hearing about it every Yud Shevat do they also hear how in 1939 a number of elite Nazis, led by one who’s father was Jewish, were charged in finding the Rebbe Rayatz and safely smuggling him out of Warsaw? And how they worked with the US Secretary of State and Justice Brandis among others? It’s an amazing story for many reasons.

Then of course from there the Rebbe Rayatz went to the US by ship and that part is the more well-known.

Kudos to Mrs. Lichtenstein upon publishing her monumental work.

One question. It seems the chapter on the Rayatz was disseminated amongst Chabad schools. 90%of these students know the story in their sleep. They lear about it every Yud Shevat.
Wouldn’t it be appropriate to add it to all schools that received the original book – they know nothing about Chabad history?
Thank you, Mrs. Lichtenstein for putting in the time and effort to include Rabbi Yosef Yitzchok Schneersohn in the book.

How about the rescue
