About the Author
John Bunyan was born in Elstow, England, in November 1628. Two times his life was spared, once when he was in the army and a soldier who took his place in battle was killed, and once when he fell out of a boat and nearly drowned. He believed, and the world can testify to the truth, that God spared his life for a special purpose.
A few years after he married his first wife, she died, leaving him with four young children. Four years later, he married his second wife, Elizabeth. By this time, he had published two works and was formally recognized as a preacher.
On November 12, 1660, he was scheduled to preach in the little town of Lower Samsell. When he arrived, he was informed that a warrant had been issued for his arrest. Unwilling to denounce his Christian faith and his calling to the ministry, he was imprisoned for twelve years. Among the many writings he published during his imprisonment are The Holy City, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, and the most famous, The Pilgrim's Progress.
After his release, he continued to write and publish stirring works that have endured through time. Among these classics are The Holy War, Visions of Heaven and Hell, and Journey to Hell: The Life and Death of Mr. Badman. After traveling through a rainstorm in an effort to reconcile a young man and his father, Bunyan died on August 31, 1688, and was buried in Bunhill Fields.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Eye opening and thought provoking!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Visions Of Heaven And Hell (Paperback)
This book was recommended to me by a friend and he made it sound like a must read piece of work. Well, it was all that he said and more! Visions of Heaven and Hell causes those who believe in life after death to think about the consequences we will endure for our actions and reactions to the experiences we have in our present lives and also how small we really are in realation to the universe around us. I would recommend this book to anyone who thinks that their life is perfect and totally fulfilled, having any and every materialist thing they ever desired. Believe me, after reading this book, you will find that the most important thing one can and should desire is an intimate relationship with God.

Interesting but not by John Bunyan,
By Penelope Glass (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Visions Of Heaven And Hell (Paperback)
This work was written by George Larkin and published in 1711 with the title "The World to Come; The Glories of Heaven and the Terrors of Hell." It was later published as "The Visions of John Bunyan" and in the 19th century included in some collected works of Bunyan under the title of "The World to Come; The Glories of Heaven and the Terrors of Hell." However, it has long been known to have been written by Larkin more than 20 years after Bunyan died.
