The Table of Contents from the Pinkas Kovel
This is a work in progress as I have several people volunteering to translate sections. I wanted to get a sense from the chapter headings what kind of content was in the book. The numbers before the titles are page numbers. I am hoping, through JewishGen, to start a translation project for the whole book. The table in Hebrew is below the translations. Thanks to Zygomnt Boxer and Dov Rubin. If anyone wishes to volunteer to translate the sections yet to be put into english, please contact me so I can make sure the work is not duplicated.
