The Sefer Kol Bo [Kolbo] is a foundational Halachic work by an early Gaon from the era of the Rishonim. The Sefer is cited many times by the Beit Yosef, the Shulchan Aruch, and the Rema. There are several conjectures regarding the identity of its author, but the Chida, in Shem HaGedolim, entry “Kol Bo, ” rejected these conjectures and established that the author is unknown. The Sefer includes many compilations from the teachings of the Geonim and Rishonim, and often these compilations are the only surviving source of their words, since the writings of those Geonim and Rishonim were lost and never printed. The Sefer also includes a commentary on the Haggadah Shel Pesach.
