Moishe Kormornick possesses that rare quality of being able to live up to the maxim of Shammai the Elder: “Say little and do much” (Pirke Avos 1:16). I have known this to be true in the various contexts in which I have worked with him. While learning together with him in the same kollel in Yerushalayim, I was impressed by his ability to sit and concentrate on a long Tosefos, line by line, reserving comments for when he had something constructive to add to the discussion. As part of the more personal relationships that naturally arise from joint Torah learning, I have always found him to be a friend with a listening ear, a storehouse of creative ideas, and above all a bastion of devotion to a fellow Jew. It was for these reasons, in addition to the fact that he impressed me as a talented master of the English language and a tireless worker, that I asked him to edit the book that I wrote about my late wife. I handed him a manuscript two to three times too long to be realistically publishable, and he, together with his wife Yehudis, was able to make the work “say” far more little and “do” far more.
Their time, dedication and concern for every aspect of the project was exceptionally impressive and very comforting to me, having never written a book before. Moishe was always on the other end of the phone, guiding me with patience and going above and beyond what was required of him. He also coordinated everything with Mosaica Press so that as far as I was concerned, everything ran smoothly the whole way through. And thankfully, almost as soon as the finished product hit the stores, it pretty much sold out. And that is all thanks to Moishe and his wife for taking 150,000 words of thoughts, Torah, stories and randomness, and making it into a wonderful 85,000 word book – perfect for what it was written to do: Inspire people by learning about my first wife’s fight for life.
And I owe it all to Moishe. I can truly say that this book would not have been published without his work and dedication, let alone a great success,
Therefore, without a doubt I recommend Moishe and his team at Adir Press, and am confident that anyone who wants to have their work published in a professional and attractive manner will be very happy at Adir Press.
I am happy to be reached directly to discuss what I experienced and to recommend Adir Press personally to you.
