John Bunyan's "The Pilgrim's Progress from This World to That Which
Is to Come" is one of the most famous books written in the English
Language. It is a Christian allegory written and was published in
February, 1678. It is without doubt one of the most significant
works of religious English literature, translated into over 200
languages, it has never been out of print. It traces the spiritual
journey of Christian as he learns lessons that help him to grow in
Christian maturity. It is thought that Bunyan wrote it during his
imprisonment from 1660-1672 in the Bedfordshire county gaol for
violations of the Conventicle Act, which prohibited the holding of
religious services that were not under the auspices of the Church
of England. This version has a beautiful cover from the early 1900s
and contains over 80 back and white illustrations engraved by the
Dalziel Brothers.and created by, among others, Frederick Barnard,
J.D. Linton, W. Small.
Many editions of John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress only have the
first half, which follows the journey of Christian, written c.
1678. They omit the second part, written c. 1684, where Christian's
wife, Christiana, follows her husband. This edition, however, has
both parts together as a single volume. Moreover, it contains the
original illustrations by Frederick Barnard (which were engraved by
the Dalziel brothers) and an index of Bible references Bunyan
cited. These features allow the modern reader to experience the
full weight of this classic allegory. Bunyan began writing this
work while imprisoned for not obeying the state church in England.
Still, Bunyan considered life's trials to be mild compared to the
prospect of eternal separation from God. He reminds us that we are
only pilgrims here; our home is elsewhere. To get there, we must
mind our step.
