Madison aims at a vivid and accurate life of Jeanne d’Arc, quoting the Maid’s own recorded words wherever she can. The story begins with a children’s festival at Domremy and a knight’s tales of war, follows the visions that called a peasant girl to save France, and carries her to the court of the Dauphin and the siege of Orléans.
A stirring, faithful retelling for older children, first illustrated by Frank Schoonover. Download the free EPUB.
