Description
1860 Pilgrims Progress John Bunyan Bible Puritan Christian Allegory Illustrated
“The Pilgrims Progress” is an iconic, profound Christian allegory originally written by John Bunyan in 1678. Narrated as a dream sequence, it details the symbolic journey of a man named Christian, who travels from his hometown, the “City of Destruction,” to the heavenly “Celestial City.” The narrative charts Christians spiritual progress, confronting him with the trials and tribulations of his faith as well as the redemptive power of divine grace and perseverance. Bunyans masterpiece, which he began while imprisoned for violating Englands Conventicle Act, is considered a foundational piece of English literature and religious narrative, having influenced numerous authors and thinkers over centuries. Remarkably, it has been translated into more than 200 languages and has remained in print since its first publication, bearing testament to its timeless message and universal appeal.
Beautifully bound, this edition was published in New York by The American Tract Society and is beautifully adorned with 8 engraved plates and includes a memoir of John Bunyan, providing context and background to this timeless spiritual classic.
