Reviews
There are many reasons why Professor Wood's study of French and English history in the late Middle Ages is a notably satisfying book ... Wood has style, both in curiosity and diction, and fortunately he enjoys displaying it... These mature reflections are calculated to excite students and to provoke their teachers out of routine responses. C.M.D. Crowder, Speculum, "Wood works close to his primary sources and is therefore interesting toargue with....Contains a number of fresh insights."--American HistoricalReview, "A notably satisfying book....The pleasure is enlarged when the message, both for the detail and the broad view, is delivered with conscious punctilio and urbanity....These mature reflections are calculated to excite students and to provoke their teachers out of routine responses."--Speculum "Professor Wood's study of French and English history in the late Middle ages is a notably satisfying book....Wood has style, both in curiosity and diction, and fortunately he enjoys displaying it."--Speculum "Readers...will find much to ponder in this rich collection of essays."--CHOICE "Wood works close to his primary sources and is therefore interesting to argue with....Contains a number of fresh insights."--American Historical Review "A lively, provocative book...Wood dives into his story with zest."--Catholic Historical Review "A thoughtful study."--Dr. Laura Mellinger, Cornell University, "A notably satisfying book....The pleasure is enlarged when the message,both for the detail and the broad view, is delivered with conscious punctilioand urbanity....These mature reflections are calculated to excite students andto provoke their teachers out of routine responses."--Speculum, "Wood works close to his primary sources and is therefore interesting to argue with....Contains a number of fresh insights."--American Historical Review, Charles T. Wood ... is that rare thing among contemporary American medievalists, an academic gadfly, in the best sense of that term. Instead of taking the 'safe" route, Wood has... alternatively goaded and irked scholars into reconsidering received notions on a variety of (usually) controversial subjects.

Synopsis
Joan of Arc and Richard III loom large in the histories of their countries, but the myths surrounding them have always obscured just who they were and what they hoped to accomplish. In this book, medieval historian Charles Wood brings these fascinating figures to life through an original combination of traditional biography and wide-ranging discussion of the political and social world in which they lived. Wood draws on a range of unusual sources--from art and legal codes to chronicles and lives of saints--to present a new picture of medieval people and their concerns. Focusing on topics often neglected by other historians, he includes lively discussions of royal adultery scandals, child-kings and the problems they posed, and earlier people and crises that helped to shape the culture of sex and sainthood that was profoundly that of the Middle Ages. In so doing, he clarifies the historical contributions of Richard and Joan, and sheds new light on the political, social, and religious forces that shaped medieval government and made France and England such widely different countries., Medieval historian Charles Wood here considers the larger than life figures, Joan of Arc and Richard III, who influenced the political development of their respective countries and served as catalysts for emerging national trends through both their actions and the legends that surrounded them., Joan of Arc and Richard III loom large in the histories of their countries, but the myths surrounding them have always obscured just who they were and what they hoped to accomplish.
