Overview
I Pagkang ni gepanulusun de kaataanan ni makedepat is a translation of John Bunyan's The Pilgrim’s Progress into Umiray Dumaget, an Aeta language spoken in southern Luzon. Originally written in 1678, The Pilgrim's Progress is one of the most significant works of Christian allegory in the English literary canon.
