1890 The Pilgrim's Progress

Description

Illustrated, Leather Binding, Prize Binding

A delightfully illustrated edition of John Bunyan's famed Christian allegory, in a very smart full calf school prize binding.

Illustrated with over one hundred engravings from artists including Frederick Barnard.

This Christian allegory, first published in 1678, is often regarded as one of the most significant works of religious English literature. The work has antecedents in a large number of Christian devotional works, each speaking of the soul's path to Heaven. Bunyan's writing stands apart due to its simple and effective prose style.

With the prize bookplate of Llandaff Cathedral School to the front pastedown.
