Publisher's summary

If you want to discover the captivating history of Joan of Arc, then pay attention....

Joan's story almost feels like a novel instead of a part of history. She was a shining savior on a warhorse, waving her white banner and calling her soldiers forth to victory; but she was also painfully and intensely human, a young girl who wept and bled just the same as the rest of us. In the same breath, it is as easy to relate to Joan as it is to be awed by her incredible character.

She may have been beatified as a saint, but Joan of Arc was in many ways a very ordinary human being, a person who felt pain and fear, a person who made mistakes, and who had moments of weakness. This audiobook follows her through her extraordinary journey. Feel her terror as she first experienced her visions. See her determination as she convinced a cynical captain to grant her passage to the Dauphin. Experience her exhilaration and faith as she led the French army to victory after victory. Weep alongside her as the King of France betrayed her. Suffer with her during her long imprisonment in the hands of her enemies. And cry with the witnesses who saw her burn for a crime she did not commit.

She was Joan of Arc, a person whose life remains wreathed in mystery, but nonetheless a fascinating adventure. And this is her story.

Top Information about Joan.

Here you would learn about, how the administration of France was frightened by the control that she was able to use to bring the people to her side. This audiobook is motivated me to search and get other books about her.

This book is motivated me

This audiobook presented a lot of knowledge that I had not heard previously; for example, Joan came from a comparatively well-off family, especially in parallel to their neighbors. Another is that her home village, Domremy, was within an area that saw regular raids by groups that were not loyal to the King, much more.

History I love.

I learned about the hundred years war from this audible, but not much more about Joan. If the book had had a more honest title, say like "The Hundred Years War: But still fascinating to post five stars.
