Jason Cockcroft.
This simplified version of a classic allegory tells of Christian's pilgrimage to the City of Gold and the many trials he faces in the course of his journey to salvation. The story is related in accessible language for contemporary readers; full-page color illustrations, as well as smaller vignettes in black and white, add to the drama of Christian's story.
