Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The France of Joan of Arc With the exception of the privileged few, who enjoyed life through the sufferings which they inflicted upon others, the inhabitants of the country of France had but a miserable time of it in the years immediately preceding the coming of Joan of Arc. Torn by wars from end to end - wars with England, which owned the great Duchy of Aquitaine, with the Duchy of Brittany, with Castile, or with Flanders - the country was overrun by the Free Companies. These, under noble captains who were no better than brigands, when not serving for pay under one party or the other, roamed about, burning, pillaging, ravishing, and destroying at their own sweet will. Life was a hell and France a ruin. The country had sunk to a depth of misery of which neither before nor since has the like been seen on the fair plains of Gaul.
