Free (nook/Kindle/iTunes/ePub) Pilgrim's Progress [Xtian Classic Allegorical Novel]
Pilgrim's Progress: One Man's Search for Eternal Life—A Christian Allegory by John Bunyan (Wikipedia) is his classic 17th century allegorical novel, free courtesy of Christian publisher Baker's Revell imprint.
The preface to this says that it is the "Puritan Edition of Pilgrim's Progress", and gives a bit more on the provenance of the versions (apparently revised throughout Bunyan's lifetime) used to create this one. There's also a very brief set of explanatory footnotes for some of the words whose meanings have changed over time, and a quickie bio of the author. Currently free, probably just for one day @ B&N (may also drop in the UK),Amazon UK (slated to drop in the main store after midnight Pacific Time), Kobo & iTunes & Google Play (all available to Canadians), and Christian Book (ADE-DRM ePub available worldwide). Description Often rated second in importance to the Bible as a Christian document, this famous story of man's progress through life in search of salvation remains one of the most entertaining allegories of faith ever written. Set against realistic backdrops of town and country, the powerful drama of the pilgrim's trials and temptations follows him in his harrowing journey to the Celestial City. Along a road filled with monsters and spiritual terrors, Christian confronts such emblematic characters as Worldly Wiseman, Giant Despair, Talkative, Ignorance, and the demons of the Valley of the Shadow of Death. But he is also joined by Hopeful and Faithful. An enormously influential seventeenth-century classic, universally known for its simplicity, vigor, and beauty of language, The Pilgrim's Progress remains one of the most widely read books in the English language. The classic drama of Christian's journey to discover eternal life offers readers encouragement and direction for their own pilgrimage. |
