Summary
The story of Joan of Arc is a famous and compelling one. A peasant girl who persuaded the Dauphin that God had sent her to rescue France; who commanded an army; dictated military strategy; rode into battle at the head of her troops; was injured and captured on the frontline of battle; was tried as a heretic and burnt at the stake. Dr Helen Castor (She-Wolves) is writing Joan's biography and here she is drawn to tell the story of Joan's three separate examinations by the Church. (From the UK) (Documentary) CC
