Since the recent launch of Shanim Rishonot, the Hebrew version of Early Years, there has been renewed excitement over the landmark work published by JEM. Now, responding to popular demand, an anonymous donor has stepped forward to subsidize all sales of both volumes in the leadup to Gimmel Tammuz.

The product of a decade-long, worldwide research project, Early Years tells the riveting story of the Rebbe’s early life. The authors, Rabbis Boruch Oberlander and Elkanah Shmotkin were highly selective in the editing process, curating the materials in a way that allows the reader to access the original data for themselves, while providing clear, illuminating context. Even those who consider themselves to be well-versed in the Rebbe’s life story have admitted to being spellbound by the many new discoveries presented in Early Years and Shanim Rishonot.
Presented as a virtual museum of documents, photographs, private journals, letters and diaries, Early Years was recently published in Hebrew after being reviewed and expanded to add even more context to the iconic volume published in 2017.
With over 130 pages of new content, readers have been buzzing over Shanim Rishonot, and the latest additions to the largely unknown history of the Rebbe’s life. Rabbi Levi Greisman, who worked on the initial volume in English, edited Shanim Rishonot and was instrumental in bringing the new volume to completion.
Rabbi Yechiel Cagen, director of JEM’s My Encounter with the Rebbe project, says, “We’ve received such incredible feedback over the years from individuals of all ages, in all stages. Perspectives were shifted; relationships with the Rebbe were strengthened. Everyone needs a copy of this in their homes!”
Sale goes through Daled Tammuz (June 14).
