The Pilgrim's Progress In Plain and Simple English - Part One and Two

There are many books you should read before you die-but few you truly have to. The Pilgrim's Progress is one of them.

First published in 1678, John Bunyan's masterpiece has never been out of print and has been translated into more than 200 languages. Generations of readers have turned to it for its vivid storytelling, unforgettable characters, and deep spiritual insight. It has been praised as one of the greatest works ever written in English-an allegory of faith, struggle, and perseverance that continues to inspire today.

Yet the beauty of Bunyan's writing can be hard to appreciate in its original 17th-century English. This BookCaps edition bridges that gap with a clear, modern translation that captures the meaning and spirit of the original while making it easy to follow and understand. Both the first and second parts of the story are included-many editions omit the second, which follows Christian's wife on her own pilgrimage.

This side-by-side edition presents both the original and modern texts, allowing readers to experience Bunyan's vision in full while exploring how his timeless journey still speaks to modern readers. Whether you're studying classic literature or rediscovering a spiritual treasure, this edition helps The Pilgrim's Progress shine with all its original power and grace.
