This new English version of R. Epstein's work was published with approbation by Rabbi Nachman Bulman of Kiryat Nachliel in Israel wrote:
An English rendition of Rav Boruch Epstein's Mekor overdue. . . . The experience of Torah life derives first and foremost from Torah learning. But the impact of Torah learning is immeasurably richer when the lives of living Sifrei Torah, of Torah Sages, become educative models for our people. Further, such lives are vital links in the chain of Jewish historical knowledge. Mekor Boruch is a matchless compendium of biography, memoirs and lore. It was authored by a celebrated son of the greatest yeshiva in modern time - Volozhin of Lithuanian Jewry come alive. A glowing por last central figure, the venerable Netziv, is a major part of the work
Rabbi Moshe Dombey merits unstinting commendation for his adaption of Mekor Boruch for an English reading public which could find much edification from reading te fruit of his effort
