See you at the museum!
Looking forward to the debut. How much will the books be selling for with the discount that you mentioned?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. Writing a book like this is a massive, massive accomplishment. You should have nachas ruach from it and all your efforts.
ReplyDeleteKol ha-kavod to you R' Slifkin!
ReplyDeleteI have a copy of this book and have to say that it is extremely thorough and very professionally done.
ReplyDeleteIt is completely different than Slifkin's other books in that it is really designed like an encyclopedia. The book is taller and thicker than any of his other books and will definitely provide you with a wealth of information. The introduction alone is very thorough and covers the importance of correctly identifying the animals of the Tanach and the steps inolved in doing so. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the topic and it would make a great bar mitzva gift as well.
The Sefer arrived. It's amazing! Hoping the other volumes come out soon. Thank you R' Nosson.
