Joan of Arc (Only French Edition Left)

Description

For just over one hundred years England and France battled over who would sit on the French throne. Even within France itself factions developed, putting forth their own candidates challenging the rights of the Dauphin. From this struggle heros emerged, notably the Black Prince and Jeanne d’Arc, the maid of Orleans. Tremendous battles were fought at Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt, yet their impact on the war was ephemeral. Long seiges followed short campaigns, bands of the notorious Free Companies, temporitly unemployed, marauded across the countryside in search of rapine and plunder. Complicating matters, both famine and plague poisoned the seasons. All in all, ’twas a grand time!
