1000 Years of War (Iss. #1)

A "Joan of Arc" meets "Mad Max" adventure!

“But let us look back a little, and consider certain strange and impressive facts. The Hundred Years’ War began in 1337. It raged on and on, year after year; and at last England stretched France prone… But she rose and struggled on, year after year, and at last again she went down under another devastating blow… She gathered her crippled strength once more, and the war raged on, and on, and on, and still on, year after year, decade after decade. Children were born, grew up, married, died — war raged on; their children in turn grew up, married, died — war raged on; their children, growing, saw France struck down again; this time under the incredible disaster at Agincourt — and still the war raged on, year after year, and in time these children married in their turn. France was a wreck, a ruin, a desolation. The half of it belonged to England, with none to dispute or deny the truth; the other half belonged to nobody — in three months would be flying the English flag: the French King was making ready to throw away his crown and flee beyond the seas. Now came the ignorant country maid out of her remote village and confronted this hoary war, this all-consuming conflagration that had swept the land for three generations. Then began the briefest and most amazing campaign that is recorded in history. In seven weeks it was finished. In seven weeks she hopelessly crippled that gigantic war that was ninety-one years old. At Orlean she struck it a staggering blow; on the field of Patay she broke its back. Think of it. Yes, one can do that; but understand it? Ah, that is another matter; none will ever be able to comprehend that stupefying marvel.”
