Joan of Arc lived a life of almost unbelievable deeds. Martyred when a teenager for saving France from the British. If that sounds improbable, how about the Author of Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, an American, writing the best book of the scores written about Joan of Arc, the Saints of France. Twain said many times this was his best work !! I agree. RJ Ryan
