Rare: Toldot Amudei HaChabad—Michael Levi Rodkinson. Koenigsberg, 1876.

Sefer Toldot Amudei HaChabad, with biographies of Rabbeinu HaZaken, his students, sons, and his family until the book’s publication, edited by Michael Levi Rodkinson. Among the first biographies of the Admor HaZaken and Chabad chassidus, including a great amount of primary content on the Admor HaZaken, his students, and family. The book includes the machloket with the misnagdim and letters from the Admor HaZaken and his son on the Napoleonic Wars.


The author was born with the surname "Frumkin", the son of Alexander Sender Frumkin and half brother of Israel Dov Bär Frumkin, the editor of The Havatzeleth newspaper in Jerusalem, Arieh Tzvi Hirsch Frumkin and Guishe Frumkin-Navon. Michael Levi was named after his grandfather, Aaron ha-Levi ben Moses of Staroselye, a prominent rabbi of the Chabad movement, who created his own Hasidic group in Usha and then in Starosjle. Michael therefore grew up in a Hasidic Chabad atmosphere. He changed his last name after his mother’s name Rada.
