The Rabbi of Buchenwald: The Life and Times of Herschel Schacter Hardcover

From the back panel of the dust cover( image provided with listing): “After reaching Europe and courageously participating in its liberation, Rabbi Herschel Schacter assumed, with remarkable devotion and modesty, the sacred responsibility of assisting the survivors of the Holocaust in their gradual transition back to human existence. As one of the survivors who was blessed at that time with Rabbi Schacter’s support and encouragement, I can attest that he should—and will—always be remembered for his outstanding dedication to us. Thereafter, he remained loyal to his mission of lifelong leadership—as the inspiring rabbi of his community, an esteemed leader of Religious Zionism, and the distinguished chief of America’s Jewish leadership at that time, all of which are described in this book. Rabbi Herschel Schacter will be remembered, and his legacy will be cherished, for generations to come.”
