From the Biography Series

While war tore across Europe, the Lithuanian yeshivas suffered internal wars of their own, and in Slobodka, the war was over mussar. Amidst this tumult stood a peacemaker, Rabbi Yosef Zusmanowitz. The story of his self-effacing leadership is symbolic of the overall fate of Lithuanian Jewry.
