Description		    Responsa on all four parts of the Shulhan Arukh from R. Joshua ben Meir Horowitz. The title page describes it as part one, although it appears that no additional parts were ever printed. It further states that these are the responses from R. Horowitz to inquiries and that he was av bet din in Zikov. Ateret Yehoshua was published by his son, who was also av bet din in Zikov, currently in Tarnow. At the bottom of the title page is the publsisher’s address and telephone number in Polish. There are prefatory remarks from R. Horowitz’s son, Alter Horowitz, and from his grandson, who transcribed and edited the work. Next is an introduction from R. Horowitz’s grandson, R. Hayyim Menahem David Horowitz, av bet din, Zikov. The text follows, in two columns in rabbinic type, excepting headers and initial words. Ateret Yehoshua is comprised of forty eight lengthy learned responsa. The volume concludes with an index of the responsa and errata.
