Sharei Yosher. First edition. Both parts. Warsaw 1928.
Classic Talmudic novella authored by R. Shimon Shkop of Grodno. Primarily dealing with complex Talmudic directives, the sefer was enthusiastically received and remains a fundamental work in the Lithuanian school of Yeshivos.

In 1920 he became Rosh yeshiva in Grodno where his shiurim attracted hundreds and under his leadership, Yeshivas Grodno became world famous as a bastion of Torah.
