New York: Derby & Jackson, 1856. Hardcover. Fair. New York: Derby & Jackson, 1856. Fair. No dust jacket. Red Embossed Cloth Cover with Gold lettering & design on spine, Spine has pieces of cloth missing, rubbed to the boards along the edges and corners, pages soiled but fully readable, book intact. 475 p. Good reading copy. The Religious Tract Society. The Pilgrim's Progress holds a unique place in the history of English literature. No other seventeenth-century work except the King James Bible, nothing from the pen of a writer of Bunyan's social class in any period, and no other Christian work, has enjoyed such an extensive readers hip. Bunyan captures the speech of ordinary people as accurately as he depicts their behaviour and appearance and as firmly as he realizes their inner emotional and spiritual life. The tale is related in language remarkable for its beauty and simplicity, and is spiced with Bunyan's acute and satirical perceptions of the vanity and hypocrisy of his own society. AB01
