Maasei Avos Siman L'Banim Vol. 6

The sixth volume of Maasei Avos Siman L'banim carries on the project ArtScroll describes as "Torah perspectives on personalities, episodes and periods in Jewish history," and at 420 pages it is a substantial installment - noticeably more material than a slim essay collection.

Bound in hardcover at 6.00 x 9.00 inches, it matches the earlier volumes wherever the set is kept. For a collector completing the set that matters; for a first-time reader, the length simply means more to work through, and the essay format means you can enter anywhere without having read what came before.

The value of this series is that it refuses to treat Jewish history as trivia. Each episode is examined for what it teaches about the generations that followed, which is why the sefer tends to end up on the desks of people who speak - rabbanim preparing a drashah, teachers building a history unit, fathers looking for something at the Shabbos table that is not a repeat of last week.

Free shipping applies once an order passes $75, which is easy to reach if you are filling in more than one volume of the set at a time.
