Synopsis
SYNOPSIS: "Historical novel based on the life of Jean d'Orbais who was born under the shadow of Reims Cathedral. From his earliest childhood he sees it growing in beauty through the efforts of the master craftsmen who are at work on it. When he is ten, he is apprenticed to a goldsmith, and begins his education in the arts. The story of his career, his apprenticeship, his escapades, his ambitions, and his final success, are shown through his eyes in the bustling town of Reims in the fourteenth century, with its crafts and guilds, its merchants and its beggars, its nobles and its soldiers. He hears too of the Maid of Orleans, and her fight for France."
