Menachem-Mendel Schneerson: The Last Lubavitcher Rebbe

The new issue of "History Class of Tamara Eidelman" is dedicated to the biography of an amazing man Menachem-Mendel Schneerson, the seventh Lubavitcher Rebbe, the head of one of the most famous branches of Hasidism.

Reb Schneerson had an amazing life of an intelligent Jewish youth turned into a young man who tried to study as an engineer in Paris and live an ordinary secular life, and then into spiritual leader of thousands of Hasidim, breathing new life into Lubavitcher Hasidism. How was that possible? And why do thousands of people still believe that Rebbe Schneerson did not die, although he died back in 1994?
