This dramatic story by John Bunyan, the author of Pilgrim's Progress, is the account of the long and bitter battle for the city of Mansoul. The city is attacked by Diabolus using every means possible and the weakness and failings of the inhabitants of the city threaten disaster until Prince Emmanuel intervenes and secures victory. This modernized version of Bunyan's original retains the beauty of the original author's style, while making the story accessible to young and old.

Love the illustrations!

Most of you have heard of the classic book “Pilgrim’s Progress” which was written by John Bunyan, who was an English writer and Puritan preacher. “The Holy War” is another title written by him that may be less common but a very worthwhile read!

The original allegory was published in the year of 1682. This book here is a modernized version, aiming to make it more accessible to young and old while retaining the original beauty.

The story is about the town Mansoul which is besieged by Diabolus (the devil) and then later rescued and relieved by the army of Emmanuel.

The book features a detailed account of Scriptural references. I also love the illustrations at the beginning of each chapter! The story is for adults, yet you may be able to read it with your more mature teenagers.
