This edition of French heroine Joan of Arc's biography by Ronald Gower is complete with original illustrations depicting the places Joan visited and lived in. This book chronicles Joan's short life, and how she came to play a crucial role in the Hundred Years' War. Keenly recounting the history of 15th century France alongside the narrative of Joan's life, Gower offers the reader an informative and enlightening account of the conflicts and social turmoil present in the era. We witness Joan's rise to prominence from obscurity, and the ascription of divine inspiration to her decisions. Initially disguised as a male soldier during the conflict, her attraction as a symbolic savior to the French royal court of the era propelled Joan to rapid recognition. As a powerful figurehead inspiring to French soldiers, Joan enjoyed a uniquely influential position which was cut short by a sudden ambush and capture by English forces. | Author: Ronald Sutherland Gower | Publisher: Lulu.com | Publication Date: Aug 28, 2018 | Number of Pages: 162 pages | Language: English | Binding: Hardcover/Biography & Autobiography | ISBN-10: 1387894471 | ISBN-13: 9781387894475

The Witch by C.S. Lewis
By Anatoly Liberman For some time I have fought a trench war, trying to prove that fowl and fly are not connected. The pictures of an emu and an ostrich appended to the original post were expected to clinch the argument, but nothing worked. A few days ago, I saw a rafter of turkeys strutting leisurely along a busy street. Passersby were looking on with amused glee while drivers honked. The birds (clearly, “fowl”) crossed the road without showing the slightest signs of excitement.

\"\"Joan of Arc: A Self-Portrait\"\" is a book written by Willard Trask that provides a unique perspective on the life and legacy of the famous French heroine. Rather than relying solely on historical accounts and interpretations of Joan's life, Trask presents a collection of Joan's own words and writings, allowing readers to gain insight into her thoughts, beliefs, and motivations.The book is divided into sections that cover different periods of Joan's life, from her childhood in Domr�����my to her trial and execution in Rouen. Each section includes excerpts from Joan's letters, speeches, and other writings, as well as commentary and context from Trask. Through these primary sources, readers are able to see Joan as she saw herself, rather than through the lens of later historians and myth-makers.In addition to Joan's own words, the book also includes illustrations and photographs that help bring her world to life. Overall, \"\"Joan of Arc: A Self-Portrait\"\" offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind and heart of one of history's most remarkable women, and is a must-read for anyone interested in Joan of Arc or medieval history more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
