Shailoth Uteshuvoth [large collection of varied responsa]

An extensive collection of responsa by a large number of rabbis of 19th century North Africa. Many here copied by R. Ya’akov Calphon, with several autograph responsa by the rabbis themselves, including Rabbis: Shlomo Eliyahu ibn Tzur, Ya’akov ibn Tzur, Shmuel Kelin(?), Abraham Yisrael, Eliyahu Abraham, Shmuel Assus(?), Shlomo Bibas, Yehudah Angur(?), Yedidyah HaKohen, Yoseph Halevi ibn Yolich, and several others. Many of these responsa were published by Calphon in 1930-31, however, it is apparent that the present manuscript also includes a number of unpublished responsa. <<An important collection concerning the life and history of the Jews of North Africa during the 19th century.>>
