The book '''Zikaron L'Bnei Yisrael''' (Memory for the Children of Israel) was written based on notes recorded by Rabbi [[Yisrael Jacobson]] beginning in [[1957|5718]], following the directive of [[the Rebbe]] given to him during a [[yechidus]] (private audience) that took place on [[2 Cheshvan]] [[1957|5718]] (a), and he continued writing them during the years 1957-59 (b).

In [[1964|5724]], the author began publishing selected excerpts from his memoirs in the quarterly journal [[Di Yiddishe Heim]]. He continued publishing them until his passing on [[17 Sivan]] [[1975|5735]].

At the beginning of [[1992]], the idea of editing and printing the memoirs was raised for discussion. Family members requested the consent of [[the Rebbe]], who was pleased to respond (free translation): "[I give my consent], and more than that, [I extend] great appreciation - especially since many will certainly learn from reading it, particularly regarding necessary, authentic activism, especially Chabad activism."

==== Contents of the Book ====
In these memoirs, he writes about:

a) The period of his studies at the [[Tomchei Tmimim Yeshiva in Lubavitch]], [[Shchedrin]], [[Kremenchug]], and [[Kherson]] - during the years [[1907]] - [[1920]].

b) The period of his time with our Rebbes in [[Lubavitch]], [[Rostov]], [[Leningrad]], [[Europe]], and the [[United States]] - during the years [[1907]] - [[1939]].

c) The period of his residence in [[Gomel]] during the years [[1920]] - [[1925]], and the founding of the yeshiva there.

d) The period of his residence in [[New York]] from [[1926]] onward, the founding of Agudas HaTmimim, the management of [[Agudas Chasidei Chabad]].

e) The visit of [[Rabbi Joseph Isaac Schneersohn]] to the [[United States]] during the years [[1929]] - [[1930]].

f) The founding of [[Achei Tmimim]] and the mission of sending students to study at the [[Tomchei Tmimim Otwock|Tomchei Tmimim Yeshiva]] in [[Otwock]].

Parts of these memoirs have also been published: In the book [[History of Chabad in Soviet Russia]], in the book [[History of Chabad in the United States]], in [[Kerem Chabad]] issue 3 p. 241 and onwards, in articles and serials in the quarterly journal [[Di Yiddishe Heim]] during the years [[1964]] - [[1975]], translated into [[Yiddish]] and [[English]].
