Joan of Arc Country.

While in Normandy in June, Nancy and I will be close to Rouen. This where Joan of Arc was burned alive at a stake in 1431. Joan is the youngest person in history to be given command of the army of a country. She was 17. This was during the last years of the Hundred Years War.  She was actually in charge and won some battles. Four letters signed by her as the Commander of the French Army are in existence. Her public life consisted of two years. Her last year was spent as a prisoner in the tower below.
