Sefer Mishberei Yam, responsa on four parts of the Shulchan Aruch and Be'urei Halachot, by Rabbi Aharon Moshe Kisilov from Harbin. Harbin (China-Japan), 1926.
A small Jewish community which was established pre World War I by Russian natives lived in the city of Harbin, China. The first and last rabbi of the congregation was the Ga'on Rabbi Aharon Moshe Kisilov (1866-1949), among the Lubavitz Hassidim and disciple of the"Gadol of Minsk" and Rabbi Chaim Soloveitchik. He arrived at Harbin in 1913 after serving for many years in the Borisov Rabbinate in the region of Minsk. In 1937 was unanimously appointed as chief rabbi of all the congregations in the Far East. Upon the Chinese conquest of the city from the Japanese authorities, and the establishment of the communist rule in China, the Hebrew congregation in Harbin was eradicated. During the community's 40 years of existence only 5 Hebrew books were printed there.
252, [4] pages. 32.5 cm. High-quality paper, good-fair condition, minor moth stains and pasting on margins of title page. Original binding, defective and renewed.
