It was written by Rav Yisroel Dovid Miller of Grodna, a talmid of Rav Nachum, I think in 1889. The edition I have was printed by the author's son Aryeh Leib Miller in 1913 in Pyetrokov.

He grew up in Grodna and moved to Jerusalem as a young man. His home remained in Jersulem for his whole life. He sold esrogim and citrus fruits in the US. He died in the US during one of his trips there in a train crash in 1924, and he was buried in Jerusalem. You can find him on the geni website (I put him on it). YD,
