The author (1827-75), an extraordinary child prodigy, composed this work aged just nine years - and according to the approbation of R. Alexander Lipa of Ziditschov, accomplished it in just nine hours! R. Chaim of Sanz tested him when he was Bar Mitzvah age and compared his precocity to that of the Gaon of Vilna. See Y. Raphael, Encyclopedia LeChassiduth, cols. 226-7.
