Excerpt from Joan of Arc: A Drama Joan OF arc, warrior and saint, was so human as to be almost divine. To her a war for wrong could be nothing but evil, a war for right should be nothing but good: incongruous things were not to her liking. She would smite the desolator, but once overcome she would heal him. Good sense, courage and constancy were her support, but grief and tears were ever by her. Her purpose was direct, her decision prompt; delay was irksome to her. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
