It is the fifteenth century, and the tumultuous Hundred Years' War rages on. France is under siege, English soldiers tear through the countryside destroying all who cross their path, and Charles VII, the uncrowned king, has neither the strength nor the will to rally his army. And in the quiet of her parents' garden in DomreÌmy, a peasant girl sees a spangle of light and hears a powerful voice speak her name. Jehanne. The story of Jehanne d'Arc, the visionary and saint who believed she had been chosen by God, who led an army and saved her country, has captivated our imagination for centuries. But the story of Jehanne--the girl--whose sister was murdered by the English, who sought an escape from a violent father and a forced marriage, who taught herself to ride and fight, and who somehow found the courage and tenacity to persuade first one, then two, then thousands to follow her, is at once thrilling, unexpected, and heartbreaking. Rich with unspoken love and battlefield valor, The Maid is a novel about the power and uncertainty of faith, and the exhilarating and devastating consequences of fame"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Joan, $c of Arc, Saint, $d 1412-1431 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Christian women saints $v Fiction. 651 0 $a France $x History $y Charles VII, 1422-1461 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Christian fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 12 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626012203.0 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430014541.0 952 $l DJPD353 $d 20180717022130.0 952 $l MWPB943 $d 20180712041037.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812075824.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20140619022011.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20140514020110.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20130904011652.0 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20130314035913.0 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20120105013024.0 952 $l ZOPC437 $d 20111123102058.0 $m F Cut 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20111025010729.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8998EC6CEF1711E09F56419B6AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
