Pilgrim's Progress is one of the greatest and most influential stories ever told. Now it is being released for the first time in a Large Print edition.
Big, bold, sans serif type, printed on non-fading acid-free paper make it ideal for visually impaired people.John Bunyan (1628-88) tells the inspirational story of Christian and his unique spiritual pilgrimage from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City.This edition is unabridged, with changes only made to translate the occasional obscure seventeenth-centurey language into down-to-earth modern dialect. It includes all of Bunyan's many Bible references, and an Introduction by this edition's editor, Halcyon Backhouse.John Bunyan (1628-88) started work as a tinker but later became a preacher. As a Puritan, he was arrested for holding open-air 'non-conformist' worship services and spent twelve years in Bedofrd jail. It was there that Pilgrim's Progress, among other works, was written.
