"Seldom is the Torah world taken so spellbound as it was by the passing of Reb Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, zecher tzaddik li'vrachah. From the magnitude of the funeral in Jerusalem, with its huge outpouring of reverence and live, to the countless tales and memoirs that have come forth about this towering yet humble figure, an image resembling spiritual perfection clearly emerges. His vast scope and legacy of Torah knowledge, alongside an immeasurable saintliness of character, and an incessant, unique preoccupation with chesed, earned for Reb Shlomo Zalman an awe and admiration universally shared and profoundly felt. The "ways of the righteous" serve as an inspiration to posterity. They challenge us to lift our sights and focus our values on the paths followed by tzaddikim. Such is the purpose and message of the undertaking in this book by Hanoch Teller, a writer superbly qualified for the task. May the stories told here lead to the emulation of the great in thought, in word, and in deed." Rabbi Yaakov Perlow, The Novominsker Rebbe
