  With all the misconceptions going on around about Chassidus, and about the Satmar Rebbe, Reb Yoel Teitelbaum zt”l, and today being his yohrzeit. I thought to bring this book to my followers’ attention.

I have read it myself, as well,  and can only say it is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the Chassidishe worldview, way of life and modern day politics.

Enter the glorious court of Satmar - a flourishing Chassidic dynasty that is as intriguing as it is vibrant.  What is the secret sustains the walls of this insulated community?  How did their viewpoints appear on the international political arena?  And finally… who gave life to one of the largest Chassidic empires in the world?

The visionary.  The founder.  The Rebbe.

In this well-researched and beautifully written biography produced by Rabbi Dovid Meisels, a Satmar chassid himself, author of the popular Secrets series and a relative of the Rebbe - we meet a towering gadol, a manhig hador - the Satmar Rebbe, a triplicate of Torah, avodah and chessed; whose faith in the face of overwhelming adversity will uplift and inspire.

Turn the pages and read about the Rebbe, about his life, his legacy, his ideals, and how his influence and presence are still felt everywhere.
