R' Eliezer Tzvi Tzfeifel z"l wrote a sefer under the name "Sanegor", printed in 1885 (5645) in Warszaw. It is an interesting polemic work that deals with detractions of Talmud by the "maskilim" in five maamorim; it's particularly interesting as it comes with a full page endorsement in fluent Russian, written by one Z. Minor , the Rav Mita'am haKahal. There are also haskomos by R' Chayim Berlin z'l , given in Moscow ; by R' Shmuel Mohilever z"l, rav of Białystok; R' Yosef Chayim Kro z"l of Wlaclawek and R' Mattis Strashun z'l fun Vilno.
The sefer itself is an interesting work, but it's the endorsement in mime-lushen that should catch your attention. For now, enjoy the original while a dedicated team of volunteers will donate a translation of this verbiage that does its author justice.
