Across an ocean, a terrible war raged. And in America, many Jewish people had strayed far from Torah. Who would rebuild the yeshivah world that had been destroyed? Could yeshivos thrive in America like they had flourished in Europe? Rav Aharon Kotler was a man with a fiery passion for Torah and a deep love for his students. He understood that the future of the Torah world lay in the United States.
Reb Aharon founded a yeshivah in Lakewood, New Jersey. He had just a handful of students at first, but he knew the yeshivah would grow. And grow it did. This is his story. It is the story of a man who rebuilt the world of Torah.
