Format:Paperback
Many people have turned their hand to writing in prison or other noble causes. No one has yet surpassed John Bunyan who was serving at his majesty's pleasure for preaching the Bible at His Majesty's pleasure. For the last 330 years this book has rung so many bells with Christians on their pilgrimages to heaven. The struggles, the characters and their flaws and God's steadfast love and faithfulness come across as if they were written about the reader's own experiences. A great help and encouragement.
The barrier of Shakespearian English has put many people off but now the way is open to the modern reader in a translation that is both modern and accurate.

This is a beautiful book both inside and out. The paper quality makes a lot of difference to me because I love the feel of a book, and this outstanding classic is worthy of the best even though it is paperback. The author has lovingly updated John Bunyan's words without altering anything unnecessarily. I thought perhaps there was a little too many shortforms of words like 'isn't' 'won't' 'I've' etc, but itcertainly didn't spoil it for me, I just felt they were not needed every time. As I am English perhaps that is just an British foible. I loved this book and have bought copies for myself and as gifts for others. The book lives up to its name - and is truly a pure gold classic.

I have already read one of the original old English versions of Pilgrim's Progress and had a hard time getting through it let alone understanding a lot of its archaic words and format and context.
Hazelbaker's updated version of this timeless classic has been done very well, with only a few words here and there needing me to look up. The added Bible References is really helpful with the added side notes in the footnotes adds to the reading comprehension.
I recommend anyone to read this book, and especially the person who has read the original.

Fine, but no KJV
Big disappointment in that this 'Classic' book used quotes from the New International Version (NIV) rather than the Authorised King James Version (KJV), which I expected and would... Read more
