Synopsis

The purpose in publishing this edition of The Pilgrim’s Progress is to carry forward this treasured legacy for a new generation. With this as the objective, the text of this edition has only been lightly edited—to update archaic words and difficult sentence structure, while retaining the beauty and brilliance of the original story, and to let the story unfold with all the power, truth, and remarkable creativity of the original. It is our hope and prayer, then, that the following pages will fascinate and captivate the hearts and minds of this generation today, as was the case when The Pilgrim’s Progress was first published more than three centuries ago.

About The Author

C.J. Lovik graduated from Westmont College with a degree in education and communication and taught elementary school in Southern California. When he was 9, Lovik read John Bunyan’s timeless classic The Pilgrim’s Progress for the first time, and it became his favorite book next to the Bible. During the past twenty years Lovik noticed that fewer and fewer young Christians had been exposed to The Pilgrim’s Progress. Thus he decided to revise and edit the original version so that it would be easier to read and understand for readers today, while remaining faithful to Bunyan’s narrative and preserving the beauty and tone of Bunyan’s original work. It is hoped that the final result will reintroduce the English-speaking world to this timeless classic.
