Joan of Arc and the Times of Charles the Seventh, King of France is a historical account of the life of Joan of Arc, a French heroine who played a significant role in the Hundred Years' War between England and France. The book is written by Anna Eliza Bray and was first published in 1874. The book begins with an introduction to the political climate of France during the 15th century, which was characterized by a power struggle between the French and English monarchies. It then goes on to detail the life of Joan of Arc, who was born in a small village in northeastern France and claimed to have received visions from God instructing her to help the French defeat the English.The book provides a detailed account of Joan's military campaigns, including her involvement in the siege of Orleans and the Battle of Patay. It also describes her capture by the English and subsequent trial and execution for heresy.Throughout the book, Bray provides historical context for Joan's actions and examines the role of religion and politics in shaping her life and legacy. She also explores the reign of Charles VII, the French king who supported Joan's military campaigns and played a crucial role in securing her release from English captivity.Overall, Joan of Arc and the Times of Charles the Seventh, King of France is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of France's most iconic historical figures and the tumultuous era in which she lived.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
