The significance of Rebbe Mendel Schneerson is surveyed in this reflective anthology and photography book.
While the oral histories offer a fascinating lens into a massive figure in global Jewry, the highlight of the book is the intense, occasionally chaotic photographs by award-winning photographer Asnin, who accompanied Specter on his New York Times Magazine profile three decades ago. The photographs, full-color and high-resolution full-page presentations, appear on nearly every page. The book is as gorgeous as it is insightful and would make a lovely coffee-table centerpiece.
A poignant, well-edited collection of interviews and photographs that pays homage to “the Rebbe.”
