This is a solid, accessible biography for youth about John Bunyan-the faithful Puritan preacher and writer of the most popular work of fiction,"The Pilgrim's Progress".
George Mitchell uses two fictional teenagers working on a school project as the premise for the book. He uses this with success to insert witty information and exposition into Bunyan's life, times, and theology and apply them in a 21st century context without it coming across as too clumsy or academic.
It's a well-researched biography and could be used as an introduction into John Bunyan's importance in church history as well as 17th century English history.
