This biography aims to recount the extraordinary life and achievements of Joan of Arc, the Maid of Orleans, emphasizing her role in restoring France during its turbulent times in the 15th century. The narrative highlights her visions, her resolve to see Charles VII crowned, and the religious devotion that fueled her mission.

He introduces Joan as a humble maiden from Domrémy, discussing her early life and the development of her mystical experiences and visions that would ultimately steer her towards her fateful mission to save her homeland.
