He was a fount of guidance, comfort, and blessing to tens of thousands. His diligence in Torah was legendary, yet he opened his home and his heart to all who sought him.<\/p>\n<p>But despite all the stories we have heard, there is so much more. And Rabbi Naftali Weinberger is the perfect person to give us the rest of the story.<\/p>\n<p>Rabbi Weinberger has had a uniquely close relationship with Rav Chaim Kanievsky and his family for nearly thirty years \u2014 so much so that Rav Chaim authorized him to write the bestselling biography Rebbetzin Kanievsky.<\/p>\n<p>His unparalleled access to Rav Chaim and his family enabled him to produce this fascinating biography, giving us an insider\u2019s view of the Sar HaTorah\u2019s remarkable life and achievements, including warm and personal stories heard directly from the family and rare photographs appearing in print for the very first time.<\/p>\n<p>In these pages, we will come know the Torah aristocracy that was Rav Chaim\u2019s family \u2014 the Chazon Ish, the Steipler, Rav Elyashiv, and others \u2014 from the family\u2019s unique perspective. We will encounter the Torah giants and \u201csimple\u201d Jews who were part of Rav Chaim\u2019s life, and see how he interacted with them.<\/p>\n<p>The Prince of Torah gave our People so much in his lifetime, and through this extraordinary volume his memory and example will continue to inspire us. We will aspire to emulate his diligence and love for Torah, his shalom bayis, and the chinuch he instilled in his family. We will learn to care for and welcome every Jew. And we will see how a Torah giant who valued every moment of Torah study freely gave of his time for others.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rav Chaim: The Biography Rav Chaim Kanievsky was the Sar HaTorah, master of every area of Torah knowledge and author of dozens of Torah works on topics ranging from the basic to the arcane.
