R. Shalom Mordechai HaCohen (Schwadron) known as the Maharsham of Berzhan (1835-1911) was the foremost Halachic decisor of Galica. He responded to questions posed from across the world which were later published in multiple volumes under the title Shailoth U’Teshuvoth Maharsham. He also authored many other renowned works including Daath Torah, Mishpat Shalom and Techeleth Mordechai. On the title he writes that he inherited this book from the estate of his father and he records the value it was assigned.
