This book is a dialogue between the reader and Joan of Arc, the woman Mark Twain called “easily and by far the most extraordinary person the human race has ever produced.”
As we explore her virtue-infused life, this astonishingly modern woman takes us by the hand, coaches us, whispers wise advice in our ear. Far from being anachronistic, her way of life and virtuous example is eternally new, for she follows precepts that are above human weakness.
Joan is for all of us – men and women of today, living and working in the midst of the world. She is for us all a coach, a mother, and an excellent teacher of the elevated, virtuous, and courageous life.
“By sharing with us the very human qualities of Joan of Arc, and not leaving out her wonderful sense of humor, Alex Havard enables us to realize that Joan is very close to all of us in this pitiless war on the moral and spiritual heritage of humanity.” – Nina Kethevan, author of the play Dress of Fire
