"Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc — Volume 2" by Mark Twain is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. This narrative is presented as a memoir from the perspective of Louis de Conte, Joan's page and secretary, and it delves into the experiences and exploits of Joan of Arc during her extraordinary life. The book chronicles her trials, including her military campaigns, visions, and the eventual hardships that lead to her trial and martyrdom. The opening of this volume introduces us to a critical and intense period in Joan's journey, characterized by a significant prophecy of her impending doom and the insights from her intimate circle. As Joan engages with her confidante Catherine Boucher, she reveals her courageous spirit and unwavering resolve, even as she unintentionally alludes to her tragic fate. The atmosphere is charged with both hope and foreboding as her military endeavors unfold, raising the spirits of the French army and the people. Joan's experiences are portrayed with a deep emotional weight, reflecting on her role as a leader and the heavy burden of her prophecies, setting the stage for her complex legacy.
