As the English raided the countryside villages of France in 1425, 13-year-old Joan began hearing voices that demanded she bring peace to war-ravaged France. By 17, she had convinced the leaders of France to grant her an army. She fearlessly mobilized her troops on a quest that stunned the English invaders and brought about the coronation of the French heir to the throne. At 19, Joan was convicted of heresy and sentenced to death. |
