About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Jeanne D'Arc: Her Life And Death by Margaret O. Oliphant. Read in English by LibriVox volunteers The story of Jeanne d'Arc, or Joan of Arc , has passed into folklore and has been retold by many. The young teenager was sent by an as-yet uncrowned Charles VII of France to relieve Orleans from siege during the 100 Years' War with England, following visions she claimed to have received. After just nine days, she led the French army to victory and was subsequently burned at the stake for heresy. Later cleared of all charges, she was canonized in 1920. - Summary by Lynne Thompson
