Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Every Home Needs A Copy
One of those books every home needs on the shelf. By the way, read it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The audio book is very good
I have made it a habit this year to get through many of the classics on audio book during my daily commute. I picked Pilgrim's Progress since it was one of the most influential English books ever published, and I wanted to see what it was all about.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Treasure!!
Every christian household should have this volume to read and share with the famiy. It never fails to bring me to tears when pilgrim falls before the cross and looses the burden of sin. It is a must have for every christian library and the additional insights from Bunyan are a added blessing!! I cannot say enough good things .....
