It was an immediate success when it was first published in 1678 and has since become a world classic having been translated into more than 200 languages. THE PILGRIM'S PROGRESS has touched the hearts of multitudes.Here is the simple story, told with inimitable charm, of Christian's journey from the City of Destruction (this world) to the Celestial City (Heaven).
