Book request: "Bunyan Characters in the Pilgrim's Progress" by Alexander Whyte
Back in the days of the Community Pricing program, that's where this would have belonged. Clearly out of copyright (1903, and author died in 1921, more than 75 years ago). But that program seems to have died. So where else to request it? It would be a great addition to a Logos library. Whyte's classic book Bible Characters is already available, as is Pilgrim's Progress itself in various editions. I have not ever seen any other full-scale character studies of the characters in PP. It's available in Kindle and for free on the Internet Archive, but both versions are deficient (one is images only, and the other is a poorly converted text with no table of contents). Anyway, having it in Logos would make it easier for doing character studies as you're reading the Logos book.

CP isn't dead... just scaled back. FL determined that there were too many resources listed, with not enough interest. The culled the list, but that doesn't mean other books can't be added.

Vyrso books come directly from publisher files, so you would have to have a good publisher file first. If the ones you are looking at are deficient, it wouldn't be any better in Vyrso, unfortunately.

That may be true hypothetically, but none have been added since the great cull. Lexham English Bible (LEB) with Audio Old Testament has been the "newest" on the list since before I took a months-long hiatus from posting on the forums and buying new resources. That tends to make me even less interested in checking for CP publications to bid on.

Well, it seems they listened to you because Bunyan Characters is about about to published by Faithlife. I just got an email confirming it.
