""The Life of Joan of Arc: The Maid of Orleans"" is a historical biography written by David W. Bartlett in 1859. The book tells the story of Joan of Arc, a young French peasant girl who, in the early 15th century, claimed to have received divine visions instructing her to lead the French army to victory against the English during the Hundred Years' War. Bartlett's biography provides a detailed account of Joan's life, from her childhood in the village of Domr¿¿¿¿¿my to her eventual capture and trial for heresy and witchcraft. He explores the political and religious context of Joan's time, including the ongoing conflict between France and England, the role of the Church in medieval Europe, and the tensions between different factions within French society.Through his research, Bartlett seeks to separate fact from fiction in the many myths and legends that have grown up around Joan of Arc over the centuries. He presents a balanced and nuanced portrait of a complex historical figure, one whose bravery and devotion to her country and her faith continue to inspire people around the world.Overall, ""The Life of Joan of Arc: The Maid of Orleans"" is a compelling and well-researched biography that sheds light on one of the most fascinating figures in medieval history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
