The book "Sefer Hamekorot" Volume 1. was donated to our library.

Yechiel Lewish is indicated as the publisher.

Could you please ask Mr. Lewis where we can purchase volumes 2 and 3?

TODAH RABAH

The current situation is:

Volume I is out of print. Additions have been made too the original manuscript. Some finance is needed for re-printing.

Volume II is fairly complete, but was in the process of checking, when interrupted for more more urgent projects, designed to boost the cash-flow needed for this and other projects.

Volume III exists in skeleton form,only.
