Child's Life of St. Joan of Arc
'Child's Life of St. Joan of Arc' Summary
Joan of Arc was born in 1412 in the village of Domrémy, France. She was a devout Catholic who believed that she was chosen by God to save France from the English. In 1429, Joan led the French army to victory at the Battle of Orléans. This victory turned the tide of the Hundred Years' War and helped to secure the independence of France. Joan was later captured by the English and burned at the stake as a heretic. She was canonized as a saint by the Catholic Church in 1920.Book Details
