Very rare! Divrei Chaim, two volumes, on names of Gitin and the laws of Mikvaot, first edition, Żółkiew (Zhovkva), 1864, with name unidentified for spacific reason, the author is the Holy Divrei Chaim of Sanz.
Sefer Divrei Chaim, authored by one of the disciples…. Annotations on the words of Poskim, Volume 1-2, Laws of the names of Gitin and Laws of Mikvaot. Żółkiew, (Zhovkva), 1864. 
Author of the sefer is the Holy Divrei Chaim of Sanz, who authored this sefer concealing his name and in the introduction he writes: "My name is not listed for known reason". This is his first sefer published. His sefarim of answers (shu"t) were published only after 11 years in the year 1875.
Only in the second edition of the sefer [Mukachevo (Munkatch) 1892], the Holy Rabbi Baruch of Gorlice the son of the 'Divrei Chaim', writes the name of the author his father, writing in his introduction, "This sefer … the manuscript was given to me as a gift from my father … and I gave t to print in Żółkiew (Zhovkva) in the year:  ס'פ'ר' ד'ב'ר'י' ח'י'י'ם' [תרכ"ד] לפ"ק. The reason I alowed myself to print the name of the author, since the author was already revealed. Also in the introduction of the sefer Divrei Chaim on Torah, it is proven the undisclosed author my father, therefor I already wrote it clearly on the cover sheet … Baruch Halberstam ab"d Gorlice. 

Very rare. On the flyleaf page caption from that period: Sefer Divrei Chaim 1st part on he names of Gitin from the Gaon of Sanz Shlit"a!! Also valuable ownership stamps from that period: Shalom Kraus …. [?]

Part one: complete. The page numbers are skipping and not continuous. Except cover page.
Part two: [1] 23 [1] page. Complete.

35cm. thin paper. Original cover loose.  Good – very good condition.
