Joan of Arc: The Life Story of the Maid of Orleans is a poignant and detailed biography that chronicles the life of the iconic French heroine. Written by Mabel Dodge Holmes, the narrative follows the shepherdess from the village of Domrémy whose spiritual visions led her to command armies and alter the course of the Hundred Years' War. The work provides a thorough examination of Joan's military triumphs, her role in the coronation of King Charles VII, and the subsequent trial that led to her martyrdom.

Through a clear and engaging prose style, Holmes explores the intersection of faith and duty, depicting Joan not just as a military leader but as a figure of immense moral courage. The book contextualizes the political landscape of 15th-century France and the religious fervor that defined the era. Readers will find a vivid portrayal of the Maid of Orleans that emphasizes her enduring impact on both French national identity and the broader history of the Catholic Church.
