Who was the Baal Shem Tov? Who was the spiritual mystic of the Carpathian Mountains, hidden tzaddik, humble kindergarten assistant who revolutionized and revitalized Jewish life? Collected in one volume is the epic story of Rabbi Yisrael Baal Shem Tov. His Torah teachings, life lessons and documented accounts of the wonders that occurred in his name make The Great Mission more than a biography, but a helpful companion to all those wishing to understand the roots of Chasidic philosophy.
