John Bunyan's The Holy War Teresa Suttles

A medieval setting of pageantry and warfare is the backdrop John Bunyan chose for The Holy War to tell the tale of the losing and the taking of Mansoul. Intrigue, deception, and rebellion are woven into the plot unfolding within the walls and castle of a medieval city fortified by five impregnable gates. The beauty of Bunyan's story has been preserved and only those changes and definitions necessary to benefit the modern reader have been made in this version prepared by Dr. Suttles along with the addition of study questions and answers. Bunyan's The Holy War has thrilled readers for centuries, and this skillfully updated version will continue to open the wonders of The Holy War for readers of today--old and young alike.
