Chicago's Glimpse of Royalty: A Historic Visit, A Royal Visitor

By Levi Teldon

Over the course of the year 5690 (1929 - 1930), Rabbi Yosef Yitzchok Schneersohn, the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe (referred to in the present article as the Rebbe) made a monumental visit to the U.S.A., where he would eventually establish Lubavitch Headquarters (1940).

In anticipation of this visit, Lubavitcher Chassidim in America organized a detailed itinerary in an effort to realize the Rebbe's primary focus on his trip; to familiarize himself with the needs of American Jewry. The Rebbe was scheduled to visit those cities that possessed a significant Jewish presence and to meet their dignitaries. The City of Chicago was privileged to host the Rebbe for over two months (11 Shevat - 29 Nissan, February 10 - April 27). This publication describes this visit in great detail, from the early preparations of this visit until his departure and beyond.
