Summa Contra Gentiles: Book One: God

Joan of Arc: A Life Transfigured
Kathryn Harrison
@heyitsalexP Joan of Arc by kathryn harrison. The question you'll ask and have to discuss with each other, as they use historical docs to tell this story, is "what is real and what is myth?" A really interesting, untraditional historical biography.
