Synopsis
Regarded by many as the most luminous example of Mark Twain's work, this fictional biography of Joan of Arc was purportedly written by Joan's page and secretary -- Sieur Louis de Conté. (Twain's alter ego even shared the author's same initials -- S. L. C.) Told from the viewpoint of this lifelong friend, the historical novel is a panorama of stirring scenes and marvel of pageantry -- from Joan's early childhood in Domremy and her touching story of the voices, to the fight for Orleans, the taking of Tourelles and Jargeau, and the splendid march to Rheims. But above all, the work is an amazing record that disclosed Twain's unrestrained admiration of the French heroine's nobility of character. Throughout his life, she remained his favorite historical figure -- "the most innocent, the most lovely, the most adorable child the ages have produced." Completed when the author was nearly sixty, the book reveals a splendidly expressive side of Twain, who wrote, "I like the Joan of Arc best of all my books; & it is the best; I know it perfectly well. And besides, it furnished me seven times the pleasure afforded me by any of the others: 12 years of preparation & 2 years of writing. The others needed no preparation, & got none." Matchless in its workmanship, this lesser work will charm -- and delightfully surprise -- admirers and devotees of the great American author., Regarded by many as the most luminous example of Mark Twain's work, this fictional biography of Joan of Arc was purportedly written by Joan's page and secretary -- Sieur Louis de Cont .

- l***l (54)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufPurchased and quickly cancelled order. The seller monitors messages and cancelled the order before it shipped with a full refund. Honest seller, good prices, and excellent customer service. I would reconsider purchasing from this seller.

- 9***x (40)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufFast shipping. The package was sealed well, but no padding was added to secure the item inside the box. The book's condition was a bit worse than expected. With only a stock photo provided in the listing, a more detailed description of the book's condition should have been provided.
- b***r (62)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufUnfortunately the book I received was in bad shape and was a different edition than was shown in the listing, however, my experience with the seller was excellent! I reached out requesting a refund and very quickly received a very professional and friendly reply and an immediate refund. Based on this experience I would recommend buying from this seller!Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (Nr. 335858773063)
