The Maid and the Queen: The Secret History of Joan of Arc by Nancy Goldstone
4.0
Nancy Goldstone does a very good job with this book. It's as easy to read as a novel. I'd recommend it to fans of Philippa Gregory, who'd like to foray into non-fiction.
I didn't know many specifics about Joan of Arc and knew nothing about Yolande of Aragon. It's really interesting to read about powerful women at a time when woman really were bargaining chips as much as anything else.
