Dead Famous: Joan of Arc and her Marching Orders

Joan of Arc and her Marching Orders

You’ve probably heard of Joan of Arc. She is dead famous for: leading the French army into battle, going up in smoke when she was burnt at the stake, and being an absolute saint. But have you heard that Joan survived a crossbow bolt through her chest, loved writing cheeky letters to very important people, and made the King of France look like a complete twit? Yes – even though she’s dead, Joan’s still full of surprises!

Get the inside story in Joan’s secret diary, read the news that set France ablaze in The Gallic Globe... and find out exactly how a peasant girl of seventeen gave an entire army its marching orders.

Double Take: The Battle of Hastings

The Battle of Hastings

William and Harold wage war for the English throne.

In the infamous Battle of Hastings of 1066, two of the greatest warriors of the age face one other. Harold Godwinson, Earl of Wessex, and William, Duke of Normandy.

Like his Viking ancestors, William shows a rare talent for violence and warfare. When Harold takes the crown for himself, William decides to amass a Norman army to stake his own claim.

Six feet tall and powerfully built, Harold is as much a man-of-action as William. He is crowned King of England, but he knows he will soon be forced to fight for his throne.

One great conflict. Two great stories.
