Esta es la primera obra del famoso escritor inglés John Bunyan, autor de El Peregrino y editada por primera vez en 1666. Pero es algo más, prácticamente su autobiografía espiritual, donde narra las distintas etapas de su peregrinaje, partiendo de su rechazo inicial de la Verdad, su rebelión contra Dios y sus sentimientos de culpa, superados por la luz recibida de la Biblia y, posteriormente, la llamada al servicio cristiano. Se trata, pues, de un relato inigualable de lucha, persecución y fe inmensurable, de un hombre cuyos escritos han causado un gran impacto en el mundo y han transformado la vida de hombres y mujeres de todas partes hasta el día de hoy.
