The book was published by Abraham Yitzchak [Dzubas], who only hinted at his name because it was published without the approbation of the family members of the Admor of Ger, who even protested against the publishing of the book [which indeed was never published again], mainly because the letters printed at the end of the book included private letters. An issue of the HaModi’ah newpaper published in Poltova, published their protest titling it “Mecha’ah Raba” by the sons and sons-in-law of the holy Rav of Ger.
