The Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan

The Pilgrim's Progress is widely considered the best novel ever written in the English language, and since its publication in 1678 has found a home on the bookshelves and bedside tables of Christians for centuries. Second only to the bible itself in popularity at one point in time, this timeless piece of literature has been a favorite among renowned authors such as C.S Lewis, Charles Spurgeon, George Whitfield, and many others.

Presented in a dream sequence, The Pilgrim's Progress chronicles the story of a man named Christian who sets out on a life-long quest to find the Celestial City. His journey to faith begins from the City of Destruction, through Slough of Despond, the Hill of Difficulty, the Valley of the Shadow of Death and Vanity Fair and over the River of the Water of Life before reaching his final destination. As you walk with Christian along his often hazardous pilgrimage you will meet fascinating characters, some of whom help him, whilst others hinder his journey along the narrow way.

Written as a powerful allegory of the Christian life, you will likely see yourself and your own life's journey mirrored within the story and its hero whilst being inspired and provoked to persevere in your walk of faith.

This edition features the original text written by John Bunyan, with parts 1 and 2 included, which chronicle Christian's journey and then his wife Christina's and his children's journey in part 2. It also includes a number of the original illustrations by Frederick Barnard and the original scriptural references.
