Out of the Inferno
Altein (Jacobson's daughter) presents an account, via documents (letters, cables, etc.), of the successful effort to save the sixth Rebbe of Lubavitch and most members of his immediate family from Nazi-occupied Europe in 1939-40. The Rebbe, Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, was then in Warsaw, with the staff of his worldwide hasidic movement and its main rabbinical school.

Eliyahu's Branches
"After decades of research, a noted Israeli genealogist has produced a book about the Vilna Gaon that contains a rare portrait of the illustrious 18th-century Eastern European sage, a discussion of his substantial influence on the Jewish world and a thoroughly-documented family tree listing more than 20,000 descendants of the rabbi and his siblings ...
