The classic of Russian spirituality--now with facing-page commentary that illuminates and explains the text. The Way of a Pilgrim is the timeless account of an anonymous wanderer who set out on a journey across nineteenth-century Russia with nothing but a backpack, some bread, and a Bible, with a burning desire to learn the true meaning of the words of St. Paul: 'Pray without ceasing.' In this completely accessible new abridgment, all the terms and references are explained for you--with intriguing insights into aspects of the text that are often not available to the general reader. Gleb Pokrovsky is a graduate of St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Crestwood, New York.
