Thompson is a critical examination of the religious allegory, The Pilgrim’s Progress, by John Bunyan, and its relationship to the consumption of alcohol. Published in 1876, the book explores the themes and symbolism used in The Pilgrim’s Progress, which follows the journey of a Christian pilgrim named Christian as he travels from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City. Thompson argues that Bunyan’s work contains a strong anti-alcohol message, with characters who indulge in intoxicating liquors often portrayed as foolish or sinful. The book also delves into the historical context of The Pilgrim’s Progress, examining the role of alcohol in seventeenth-century England and its impact on society. Thompson’s analysis sheds light on the complex relationship between religion, morality, and alcohol consumption in the early modern period.With An Inquiry Showing The Tracks Of The Wine-Cup Among The Churches.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
