== The Rebbe's Letters in English == In addition to the Igrot Kodesh series, two series of the Rebbe's letters originally written in English have been published: The first series is called "Letters of the Rebbe," published by Otzar Sifrei Lubavitch and includes eight volumes (as of 5783/2023). This series only prints letters that were received from the addressees and are known with certainty to have been sent after proofreading and signing. Volume 2 has been translated into Hebrew. The second series is called "The Letter & The Spirit," which includes five volumes (as of 5781/2021). The first volume was edited by the Rebbe's secretary, [[Rabbi Nissan Mindel]], and published by [[Kehos|Kehot Publication Society]]. The additional four volumes were edited by his daughter Mrs. Freida and her husband Rabbi Shalom Dovber Shapiro and published under their direction. These letters were collected from the first drafts preserved by Rabbi Nissan Mindel and were not proofread by the Rebbe. In addition, the Rebbe's secretary Rabbi Shalom Mendel Simpson, together with his son Rabbi Avraham, worked for several years on sorting and arranging the Rebbe's English letters from the secretariat archives to publish them in a series of books, but this series has not yet been realized.
