summary

An attractive copy of this scarce work on Pirkei Avoth. The author, a descendant of R. Yom Tov Lipman Heller, records in the introduction that of the six rabbinic works he had already composed, he could only afford to publish this present one and thanks Baron Wilhelm Rothschild and Meir Goldschmidt of Frankfurt a/Main for their assistance in this regard.
