About the series
What Are the Puritan Paperbacks?
The Puritan Paperbacks are Banner of Truth's series of the finest short works by the English and Scottish Puritans, gently updated into modern English so they read clearly today. Writers like John Owen, Thomas Watson, Richard Sibbes, Thomas Brooks, and John Flavel wrote with rare depth on sin, grace, providence, and communion with God, and these editions carry that wisdom to ordinary readers.
This site is a guide to the series and the wider library of Reformed theology: honest descriptions, fresh cover images, thousands of Puritan quotes by topic and author, and a direct link to buy each book. If you are new to the Puritans, start there, or follow a simple reading plan and work through the classics at your own pace.
