On Sunday, May 8, 1429, the English raised the year-long siege of Orleans. How had this come about? Everyone was attributing the victory to the "Maid bearing a banner" as set down on May 10, in the registers of the Parliament of Paris by parliamentary clerk Clement de Fauquembergue. Who was she? Whence came she? What had been her life and exploits? To these questions, asked by her contemporaries as well as by us and to whom true answers were even more important, let the historic documents themselves make answer.
