summary

Manuscript with Chassidic teachings and tales of the Ba'al Shem Tov, the Maggid of Mehzritch and other Chassidic greats. R. Avraham of Kalisk (1741-1810) moved to Eretz Israel along with a Chassidic group led by R. Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk (d. 1788). After R. Menachem Mendel's passing, R. Avraham assumed leadership of the group and, through his public letters, sought to maintain contact with the mass of Chassidim in Europe.
