On the Shoulders of Giants

Over the course of fifty years, Rabbi Shmuel Bloom devoted himself to Agudath Israel of America and had the privilege of meeting countless incredible individuals: revered gedolim, devoted askanim, and influential politicians from all backgrounds. In these fascinating tales, we journey through generations of greatness, from the Chafetz Chaim to Rav Aharon Kotler to Rav Moshe Feinstein, and many more. With real-life accounts, readers gain a profound understanding of daas Torah and encounter the tireless efforts of dedicated askanim like Mike Tress and Rabbi Moshe Sherer, who were committed to the entire Jewish people. Rabbi Bloom also shares his unique perspective on major political events and the resurgence of Torah Jewry, accompanied by meaningful photographs. This is our story - past, present, and future - as told by someone who witnessed it all firsthand.
